Nice article!

One other interesting project in this space is Dagger, which allows you to build CI/CD pipelines in code, and run anywhere you can run containers.
They have specific SDKs for Go, Python, Typescript, Javascript and also GraphQL API. So technically any language that has supporting libraries for using GraphQL would work.

Nice one @Sarah, I'm biased but Buildkite, is the best!

  • It's a hybrid model, the build agents are stored on your infrastructure (any cloud host, or even physical hardware) and we host and manage APIs and a UI for seeing all pipelines and builds. It's also super secure, because there are no environment variables or secret keys stored in the cloud that we can access, and we also don't see your source code
  • You can autoscale build agents out to many thousands without limit so big teams can have hundreds and thousands of builds running at any one time (we have an elastic stack tool that helps you do that with a few clicks of a button)
  • You can build dynamic pipelines at runtime via code (rather than via static pipeline config), most people use a combo of the two. But this also trims build times considerably. Here's an example of how someone does this in Ruby.

So many great tools to choose for depending on your needs! :)

Have you tried nuke.build/ ? You write your pipelines in C#, you can run and debug them locally, it's awesome! It does not replace all the tools you mention because it needs to run on a CI/CD platform but you can use it on any CI/CD platform without changing code.

Not one I've tried to be honest, but then again I don't know C# so probably not one for me, but thanks for the suggestion!

Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) is the process of automating the building, testing, and delivery of software subway surfers applications. By implementing CI/CD pipelines, teams can deliver changes more frequently, reliably, and efficiently compared to manual deployments.
While CI/CD practices originated in application development, they are now increasingly being adopted to manage Infrastructure as Code (IaC), enabling automated provisioning and configuration of infrastructure alongside application code.

Great breakdown of CI/CD processes and their growing role in Infrastructure as Code too. It’s impressive how automation enhances both speed and reliability. Also, tools like AI formal attire editor can be just as useful in presenting a polished look during professional deployments or team demos.

CI/CD pipeline tools have truly transformed how we deliver both apps and infrastructure. Automating with IaC is the next logical step for speed and consistency. Great read! Also checked out замена лица на фото pretty cool tech!

Great overview of the various CI/CD tools available! It's so important to understand the strengths and weaknesses of each option, especially as organizations increasingly adopt CI/CD practices. Your breakdown of features and ease of use makes it easier for teams to assess which tool might fit their needs best.

I appreciate the emphasis on trying out the free tiers and trials—hands-on experience is invaluable in finding the right match for a specific project or workflow. For those looking to explore more resources or get additional insights, Solara Download offers some great options! Thanks for sharing this comprehensive guide!

@monkey mart Thanks! Another cool CI/CD tool worth checking out is Dagger. It lets you create pipelines using code (not config files).
