Jenkins

Features available in the Integration

Jenkins is a continuous integration and continuous delivery platform that can be used to implement DevOps practices.

Developers, SREs, and DevOps engineers working on or depending on a service may find it useful to see what workflows have been run recently and to see deployments to each environment, all without clicking into yet another tool, navigating to the proper service, and finding the right information.

Rather than needing to jump to another system and find the appropriate data, which is often non-obvious, especially for projects you don't work on every day, having this information at your fingertips in configure8, along with deep links to dig deeper, will make the lives of all these developers easier.

There are three main pieces of value for users:

1. Deployment tracking by environment for a service
2. See recent CI/CD runs for a service
3. Include Jenkins data in the configure8 knowledge graph to enable you to answer questions (i.e., show me all resources in a non-production environment without a recent CI/CD run)

How to integrate configure8 with Jenkins

1. Provide c8 with key-based access
2. c8 seeks read-only permission
