    If you are going with SAST process or want to improve overall security posture then go for it like integrating it with post deployment steps. If you are more concerned about proactive controls better choose other options such as pee-commit hooks and CI security. Also choose other tools for DAST and API scans.

    Spinnaker suits well for applications which are stateless and can adapt to an immutable architecture of deployment. But for applications which are stateful and cannot afford to spin up new servers for every deployment doesn't go well with Spinnaker. It can handle only deployments which are VM based and cannot support deployments to serverless architecture like AWS Lambda etc.

    • It does NOT support CFN based deployments
    • Windows based systems finds it difficult to onboard to Spinnaker.
    • Pipeline level access authorisation is not there.
    • Support for EBS volume encryption is probably missing.
    • Attach/detach EBS volumes during deployments is difficult.
    • No support to deploy the artifacts without re-creating the servers. Only pure immutable deployment are allowed.
    • Open-source - so good and bad!
    • Spinnaker on its own has 10 underlying micro services. Managing Spinnaker needs a focussed platform approach.
    • User authentication is easy but authorisation management is not straight forward.

    Usability
    Checkmarx
    Their API based customizations which I leveraged to create an ASPM package, which is developer friendly and can extend above the dashboard features, other ones are UI which is great and feels clutter free. Menu and navigation is also good so as support. Only drawback is sometimes scan takes longer which I feel so can be reduced

    Checkmarx is easier to integrate with development tools and gives quick feedback during coding, which is helpful for developers. Veracode is more focused on scanning and reporting for compliance, but it’s more complex to set up. We chose Checkmarx because it fits better into our development process, offering faster scans and more useful suggestions for fixing problems
