Jenkins Is Getting Old

#12Our setup runs Jenkins master and slaves as Kubernetes pods, with plugins limited to only the very few required to get GitHub integration and slaves working.
Jobs are configured by adding an entire GitHub organization. All repositories with corresponding branches, pull requests and tags are automatically discovered and built based on the existence of a Jenkinsfile.
Everything is built by slaves using Docker, either with Dockerfile or using builder images.
Job history and artifacts are purged after a few weeks, since everything of importance is deployed to Bintray or Docker repositories.
By keeping Jenkins constrained in this fashion, we have no performance issues.

It's readable as long as you're willing to log in via Google or Facebook. Some people aren't.

#14Jenkins-X is really cool. I love how you can group services together into an environment and deploy that to a single Kubernetes namespace, and how well it uses github releases.
I really hope Gitlab's Auto-Devops team is looking at it closely and stealing all the great ideas it has because that's what our team is using.

#15Disclaimer: I'm pretty biased towards Gitlab -- write about the things you can do it from time to time and they gave me some free swag once. Best CI I've ever used is Gitlab CI[0]. The runner is completely open source[1] and you can use your own runner with your gitlab.com (or local instance) projects -- set it up in an autoscaling group[2] for savings. I run https://runnerrental.club but Gitlab also recently release…
I will second this, Gitlab has the best CI I've ever used, and I don't know what it is. The UI is just so clean, it does what I need to and is easy to configure. I put all my projects on Gitlab mostly because of the CI, but also because of the other great features.

#17They should definitely dig more into Jenkins X: it evolves a lot and it's pretty new but they're gonna have a stable version soon!
Re: Jenkins Is Getting Old
#18I sincerely wish I could move away from Jenkins for the reasons stated in TFA (GUI-oriented, slow, hard to backup/config, test-in-production mentality and boundless plugins) but I've never found something that fits the bill.
The much-touted repo integrations (travis, circle...) all have an exclusive focus on build-test-deploy CI of single repos.
But when you have many similar repos (modules) with similar build steps you want to manage, and want to have a couple of pipelines around those, and manage the odd Windows build target, these just give up (it's docker or bust). Sadly, only Jenkins is generic enough, much as it pains me to admit.
Anyone got a sane alternative to jenkins for us poor souls?

The page is actually a medium post which immediately pops up an annoying modal trying to get you to give them your personal information and phones home who knows what kind of analytics.
I'm not sure about the ethics of outline.com, but I can totally see why people are using it.
