  • Cloudbees Is A Launch Partner For Google Cloud Run As Product Goes Ga

    Industry Leaders Collaborate to Offer Streamlined Deployment of Containerized Applications, Better Access to CloudBees Solutions on Google Cloud Platform Marketplace

     

    GOOGLE CLOUD NEXT, LONDON AND SAN JOSE, CA. – November 20, 2019 – CloudBees, the enterprise DevOps leader powering the continuous economy, today announced an extension of its partnership with Google. As a Google Cloud Run launch partner, CloudBees will offer developers more flexibility in their deployment of containerized applications. Additionally, the availability of four CloudBees solutions – CloudBees Core, CloudBees Jenkins Distribution, CloudBees Jenkins Support and CloudBees Accelerator – on GCP Marketplace makes it easier than ever to acquire cutting-edge CloudBees and Google Cloud DevOps technologies to create, deploy and manage high-quality software.

    GroupM has implemented CloudBees Core and GCP technology to accelerate its DevOps transformation. “In our business, we have to be agile to ensure we are always serving the right ad to the right person,” said Moshiur Khondokar, director of engineering at GroupM. “Combining the unlimited scalability of Google Cloud with CloudBees’ speed, quality and security gives us an advantage as we continuously grow our addressable advertising capabilities to support our clients globally.”

    Google Cloud Run is a serverless compute platform that abstracts away infrastructure management, freeing up developers to concentrate on building great applications. For the first time, CloudBees Core users can deploy stateless containers to Google Cloud Run directly from Kubernetes. This streamlines the development process, reducing time and stress. Additionally, because Google Cloud Run charges only for resources used, customers can now deploy easily and avoid unnecessary costs from overprovisioned resources.

    “CloudBees is delivering key DevOps capabilities to empower developers to write code their way, and we’re delighted to offer their solutions via Google Cloud Platform Marketplace,” said Manvinder Singh, director, partnerships at Google Cloud.

    GCP Marketplace offers more than 160 popular development stacks, solutions and services optimized to run on Google Cloud Platform and instantly accessible. CloudBees has also announced the availability of CloudBees Core, CloudBees Jenkins Distribution, CloudBees Jenkins Support and CloudBees Accelerator on GCP Marketplace. Making these offerings available on the Marketplace removes another layer of complexity, enabling customers to deploy applications quickly as well as consolidate payment for GCP services and CloudBees solutions onto one bill.

    “In today’s fast-paced business environment, enterprises are looking for any way they can to reduce friction,” said Jason Mero, vice president of business development and strategic alliances at CloudBees. “Partnering with Google Cloud, we have cleared the way for organizations to build and run applications their way, using the best technologies, operating with optimal efficiency. Developers can work with the peace of mind that they can build and deploy containerized applications on their platform of choice while accessing all the benefits of CloudBees’ turnkey, elastic, Jenkins as a Service resource.”

  • Jenkins X Continues To Experience Strong Demand, Speeding Development Of Cloud Native Applications

    CloudBees introduces first GUI for Jenkins X as downloads, contributors and corporate support to the open source project grow

     

    KUBECON SAN DIEGO, CA. AND SAN JOSE, CA. – November 20, 2019 – CloudBees, the enterprise DevOps leader powering the continuous economy, today introduced a graphical user interface (GUI) for Jenkins X at KubeCon San Diego. CloudBees’ announcement comes at a time when the Jenkins X open source project and CloudBees’ support for the project are both gaining momentum at a rapid rate, with contributors and supporting companies hitting all-time highs.

     

    In less than two years, approximately 885 developers have contributed code to the Jenkins X project and there are 176 contributing companies (Source: Continuous Delivery Foundation DevStats, October 2019).

    Jenkins X offers automated CI/CD for cloud native applications on Kubernetes. Using Jenkins X, developers can leverage Kubernetes to build and deploy cloud native applications quickly and easily without having to learn the intricacies of Kubernetes and its ecosystem. The Jenkins X project, initiated by CloudBees and other contributors in February 2018, is now part of the Continuous Delivery Foundation.

    “As a software developer in charge of migrating monoliths to microservices deployed to Kubernetes, Jenkins X has helped me and my teams to be efficient in managing complex projects that require 100+ source code repositories to be deployed to different Kubernetes clusters,” said Mauricio Salatino, principal software developer for a workflow and decision automation platform company and an instructor at Learnk8s. “This was a task that initially looked impossible for a team of just four people, but we did it easily with Jenkins X.”

    Jenkins X continues to be enhanced at a rapid pace. CloudBees’ introduction of a new GUI in its CloudBees Jenkins X Distribution gives developers more flexibility and a richer user experience. The existing command line interface (CLI) loved by many developers is still available and continues to be enhanced, but now users have a choice to use the CLI or the new graphical environment, depending on which better suits their workflow. The CloudBees Jenkins X Distribution is a free offering from CloudBees.

    “Our goal is to make Jenkins X the most friction-free environment for developers looking to use Kubernetes in an opinionated, automated way,” said Mo Plassnig, vice president of cloud, CloudBees. “Offering a richer, more intuitive GUI is just the start. Contributors throughout CloudBees and the Continuous Delivery Foundation ecosystem are hard at work creating more improvements – everything from log handling to environment promotions to onboarding of workflows.”

    “The numbers show that our vision for Jenkins X was right on target,” said James Strachan, a distinguished engineer at CloudBees and one of the founders of Jenkins X. “As more organizations embrace DevOps, the need for a CI/CD solution that leverages the power of Kubernetes with the rich capabilities and straight-forward convenience of Jenkins X has continued to grow.”

  • CloudBees (Electric Cloud) Flow Scores Highest in All Three Use Cases in Gartner’s 2019 Critical Capabilities for Application Release Orchestration

    Gartner’s evaluation of application release orchestration (ARO) products is based on use cases surrounding release orchestration; pipeline and environment management; and deployment automation

    SAN JOSE, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–CloudBees, the enterprise DevOps leader powering the continuous economy, today announced CloudBees (Electric Cloud*) received the highest scores for all three use cases defined in Gartner’s 2019 Critical Capabilities for Application Release Orchestration (ARO)1. CloudBees Flow 9.0 (Electric Cloud ElectricFlow) placed highest in each use case for the second straight year, with two of the use case evaluations increasing over the prior-year period.

    Gartner’s process evaluates products on a five-point scale.

  • CloudBees (Electric Cloud) Recognized for Completeness of Vision in Gartner’s 2019 Magic Quadrant for Application Release Orchestration (ARO)

    For the fourth year in a row, CloudBees (Electric Cloud) named an ARO Magic Quadrant Leader. CloudBees believes CloudBees Flow provides a safe and reliable way to scale software release with unprecedented insight and control

    SAN JOSE, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–CloudBees, the enterprise DevOps leader powering the continuous economy, today announced it has been named a Leader in Gartner’s 2019 Magic Quadrant for Application Release Orchestration for the fourth straight year. Gartner analysts evaluated companies based on their ability to execute and completeness of vision. CloudBees (Electric Cloud) was positioned the furthest to the right among seven vendors for its completeness of vision.

    “We believe the placement of CloudBees as a Gartner Magic Quadrant Leader for the fourth year in a row, positioned the furthest to the right for completeness of vision this year, validates our commitment to market-leading excellence in the software delivery space,” said Sacha Labourey, CEO of CloudBees. “CloudBees Flow provides a high level of control and visibility into complex enterprise pipelines, helping our customers eliminate release anxiety across the entire software delivery chain. Combined with our unmatched depth in Jenkins-based CI/CD, CloudBees provides a robust software delivery solution, from code to release. As customers continue to invest in DevOps, we are more focused than ever on helping them make software delivery a true competitive advantage.”

    Scaling Release Activities

    Gartner defines the Application Release Orchestration (ARO) category as having solutions that enable organizations to scale release activities across multiple diverse teams (e.g. DevOps), technologies, development methodologies (e.g. agile), delivery patterns (e.g. continuous), pipelines, processes and toolchains.

    Gartner evaluated vendors on their Completeness of Vision based on the following categories for Market Understanding: deployment automation, pipeline and environment management, release orchestration, scalability and performance, and usability and access. Against these criteria, CloudBees was positioned the farthest right on the axis for Completeness of Vision.

    ARO Market Being Disrupted

    In the 2019 report, Gartner stated that “this research will be the final Magic Quadrant for ARO vendors.”

    “As the ARO market is being heavily disrupted, Gartner believes application release is no longer the correct perspective for understanding and evaluating the vendor landscape. The delineation in functionality between various tools — ARO, continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD), serverless, platform as a service (PaaS), etc. — is becoming blurred as these markets converge. Therefore, we have decided to provide clients with crisp, actionable guidance for ARO solutions on a case-by-case basis in 2020 and beyond,” the report stated.1

    “We agree that the ARO market is evolving rapidly as part of an overall move by customers to connect all aspects of their software delivery management practices,” Labourey said. “The need for organizations to scale release activities across multiple diverse teams, technologies, processes, stacks and toolchains hasn’t disappeared – it’s just grown bigger. We believe that this convergence must include process, tools and data, which is why we are firm believers in Software Delivery Management.”

    Software Delivery Management

    Current software delivery practices limit organizations’ ability to deliver software faster and more frequently to meet business needs. Organizations’ reliance on siloed tools used by different teams to perform largely manual tasks hampers their efforts to collaborate and share visibility across the delivery spectrum. CloudBees is responding to the challenge by building the cohesive system customers want, without forcing them to walk away from their existing tooling or processes. It will connect product stakeholders and development teams with the rest of the business, enabling full visibility and automation from idea to delivery.

    CloudBees Flow is a key component of the company’s Software Delivery Management strategy – enabling teams to implement fast and adapt easily, with unprecedented insight and control of all types of releases, at any scale.

  • Dynatrace Extends APM Reach Into Business Analytics

    Dynatrace Extends APM Reach Into Business Analytics

    A growing number of providers of tools widely employed by DevOps teams that are extending their reach into business analytics has been joined by Dynatrace. The provider of a namesake application performance management (APM) platform unveiled a set of business analytics applications aimed at application owners who need to understand how changes to the  application experience their organization is providing ultimately impacts the business.

    Ajay Gandhi, vice president of product marketing for Dynatrace, said Digital Business Analytics applications from Dynatrace extends the single-agent architecture Dynatrace created for its Software Intelligence Platform to make it easy to employ an APM service delivered via the cloud into the realm of business analytics.

    The difference between the applications being made available by Dynatrace and traditional business intelligence (BI) applications is the agent software Dynatrace developed enables application owners to track all events in real-time, said Gandhi.

    As organizations launch digital transformation initiatives, Gandhi said many discover they lack visibility into the actual end user experience. The suite of Digital Business Analytics applications provides access to a set of applications that enables application owners to track transactions as well as metrics such as conversions and revenue performance by product, customer segment and geography.

    Gandhi noted organizations don’t necessarily need to have embraced best DevOps practices to derive value from the company’s analytics applications. However, those that have embraced DevOps are likely to appreciate the value of these applications because they view themselves as a software company that happens to build a specific product or digital service.

    It’s not clear to what degree application owners may be willing to give up relying on spreadsheets and legacy BI applications they have relied on for decades to manage the business. However, a case can be made for aligning the business to IT more closely by tracking the events in real-time as they occur across application environments and the IT infrastructure on which they depend. In fact, the one thing that has always differentiated Dynatrace is its ability to leverage an artificial intelligence (AI) engine, dubbed Davis, to surface events and deliver actionable intelligence by identifying the root cause of an issue, said Gandhi.

    Other DevOps vendors that are venturing into the realm of business analytics include CloudBees and GitLab. As these vendors increasingly realize that business processes now frequently revolve around DevOps processes, they all see an opportunity to extend their franchises by providing analytics applications that are aimed well beyond their existing base of IT users. Less clear right now is which set of tools within a DevOps toolchain will serve as the primary source of data for those analytics applications. However, Gandhi did note that unlike continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) platforms, APM services can provide real-time visibility into the actual digital experiences that change as various events impact production applications.

    Regardless of the ultimate source of data, however, the one thing that is certain is the level of insight business users can have into application development and deployment processes trends is, for better or worse, about to increase substantially.
