As the number of releases increases, it is imperative to have a proper Continuous deployment and integration pipeline ready. Traditionally we have used Jenkins to do the DevOps CICD execution, but as time passed, the amount of complexity increased, pipelines became trickier to design. The scale became too complicated to manage and maintain. Cloudbees CI enabled us to manage this complexity and improve policy management. We still were able to keep Jenkins, and the work already done could be reused. Deploying Cloudbees CI improved the management and monitoring of our build jobs with multiple stages for dev testing, deployment testing, security testing, Kubernetes deployment to the cloud. Its real-time notifications to the recipients in scale and further improved our process and time. **What do you dislike about CloudBees?** One thing I realized about Cloudbees CI is its limited host environment support and high maintenance time. I believe the team is already working harder to remove these shortcomings, as they have done before. **Recommendations to others considering CloudBees:** If you are looking for a solution to manage your CI/CD jobs with better security, scale, and ease of management and still prefer to use Jenkins, CloudBees CI is an excellent product to try out. **What problems is CloudBees solving and how is that benefiting you?** The critical problem in implementing DevOps for a cloud-native solution is to have a highly streamlined and fault-tolerant system to run the tests and create deployable. I am pleased with the performance and ease of managing the continuous integration process with Jenkins as the backbone. I have used only Jenkins before, but using CloudBees CI provided more capabilities and comfort in management. ### 17.
