Jenkins
The leading open-source automation server — build great things at any scale.
Jenkins is the leading open-source automation server that provides hundreds of plugins to support building, deploying, and automating any project. As a Java-based system, it runs on any platform with a servlet container and can distribute work across multiple machines for faster builds, tests, and deployments. Jenkins Pipeline, defined using a domain-specific language in a Jenkinsfile, allows defining the entire build process as code with parallel stages, conditional logic, and shared libraries. The massive plugin ecosystem covers version control systems, build tools, cloud providers, and notification systems. With over a decade of enterprise adoption, Jenkins remains a cornerstone of CI/CD infrastructure for organizations that need maximum control, customization, and on-premises deployment of their build automation.
