WWDC26 was a quieter year for enterprise Mac teams. Siri overhaul, macOS 27 performance gains, Intel sunset. But nothing that changes your strategy right now.
What everyone's actually waiting on is new Mac hardware.

WWDC26 keynote is June 8. While most are watching for big AI announcements, MacStadium is on the lookout for quieter announcements that will actually affect your Mac Ops: Xcode updates, Swift changes, OS automations, build system improvements.
We'll sort through the sessions and break down what matters for build teams. #WWDC26

Today we remember the U.S. service members who gave their lives in service of this country.
To the families who carry that loss: we honor them with you.

AI speeds up writing code. It doesn't automatically speed up delivering it.
AI increases code volume. More PRs, more commits, more CI runs. If your Mac build infrastructure was sized for pre-AI velocity, it's now undersized.
Build queues get longer. Wait times go up. Infrastructure that was already too slow doesn't improve when you ship more code.
That's what Orka is built for: elastic Mac VMs that provision in seconds and don't carry state between runs.

Glovo migrated iOS CI from a managed CIaaS provider to Orka. Jenkins plugin, a few lines of config, and the pipeline was running.
"From the developers' point of view, nothing really changed."
What did change: 30% faster builds at half node capacity. Then 58% faster after moving to faster Apple silicon hardware.

As of April 28, your CI pipeline can't submit to the App Store without Xcode 26.
With Orka, your team owns the images. You decide when they update. No vendor queue. No support tickets. No risk to App Store submissions.

Announcing MacStadium VDI.
Mac virtual desktops provisioned from a golden image in minutes (not hours or days). Up to 2 VMs per physical Mac. Integrates with Citrix. Basically, Mac VDI that actually works like VDI.

Physical Macs don't scale. Provisioning is slow. Every device is a snowflake.
At MacADUK next week we'll show you how you can provision Mac desktops from golden images in minutes, manage them centrally, and run Mac VDI the way Windows VDI already works.

Running Mac CI on Tart Orchard and wondering what's next?
Orka has been the enterprise Mac CI platform since before Tart existed. Docs are a good place to start.

Not all macOS remote desktop tools are built for the same buyer.
Citrix is better for enterprise teams. Parsec works well for creative teams that need speed. NoMachine is for teams that prefer affordable, self-hosting.

The Cirrus Labs team is joining OpenAI. They built Tart Orchard. Big news for Mac CI teams who depend on it.

Security reviews are where a lot of tools get stuck.
The question isn't whether Orka is secure. It's whether you can prove it to your InfoSec team.
Orka is built for that conversation: role-based access control with namespace isolation, full audit logs, SSO/SAML, and corporate identity integration out of the box.
That's not a checklist item. It's the difference between passing a security review and getting blocked by one.

Life360 has 79 million monthly active users. Their iOS engineering team nearly doubled in 4 years. Their Orka workload? It tripled.
They didn't need more people managing infrastructure. They needed infrastructure that scaled with them.
