Description
Moving from Jenkins to Jenkins X: Scaling and Accelerating CI/CD - Dr. Michael Garbade, Education Ecosystem
Jenkins has served as a continuous integration (CI) tool long before the emergence of Kubernetes and distributed systems running on cloud native platforms.
Working with Jenkins as a stand-alone open source tool has proved to be extremely difficult for distributed systems engineers, as it is designed for small projects and not scalable to bigger projects.
Jenkins X has emerged as a way to both improve and automate continuous delivery pipelines to Kubernetes and cloud native environments.
In this talk, we will discuss the limitations of Jenkins, how Jenkins X addresses those limitations, how it leverages open source and commercial CI/CD tools for easier bug fixes, faster deployments, stability, consistency and improved communication.
