Agenda

• Why the integration?• Demo: Configuring the Plugin• Demo: A CI build moves into uDeploy• Demo: Deployment coordination• Q & A

About Hudson / Jenkins

• Open source (MIT) Continuous Integration server

• The tool forked in early 2011

4

Jenkins use in a nutshell

• CI tool for developers– Perform builds and early testing automatically to

provide rapid feedback about build quality

• Some teams treat these builds as “the build” passed to operations teams.

5

From CI to CD

• Expanding the CI emphasis on quality and automation downstream

6

Changing deployment needs

• Production style deployments– Load balancers, can’t drop tables, downtime

windows, etc, etc, etc• Environment aware• Additional security nearer to production• Approvals

• Thinking outside the scope of one dev team

uDeploy handles these scenarios

• Integrates with multiple build systems

• Provides an Application Model handling multiple projects or “components”

• Great integrations with stuff to deploy to
