GoCD, from ThoughtWorks in Chicago, is an application lifecycle management and development tool.
Most Appropriate: Searching for logs, setting alerts on anomalies, multiple container for logs separated by multiple services. Classification of different types of logs. Tracing of requests involving multiple services. Finding the time between different endpoints in the service layer to identify the choke points. Less Appropriate: Duplication of logs can cause an issue for you.
Previously, our team used Jenkins. However, since it's a shared deployment resource we don't have admin access. We tried GoCD as it's open source and we really like. We set up our deployment pipeline to run whenever codes are merged to master, run the unit test and revert back if it doesn't pass. Once it's deployed to the staging environment, we can simply do 1-click to deploy the appropriate version to production. We use this to deploy to an on-prem server and also AWS. Some deployment pipelines use custom Powershell script for.Net application, some others use Bash script to execute the docker push and cloud formation template to build elastic beanstalk.
Pipeline-as-Code works really well. All our pipelines are defined in yml files, which are checked into SCM.
The ability to link multiple pipelines together is really cool. Later pipelines can declare a dependency to pick up the build artifacts of earlier ones.
Agents definition is really great. We can define multiple different kinds of environments to best suit our diverse build systems.
The product is easy to use and integrate. The customer support is at a level of its own. There was never a time we needed help with something, and the support wasn't there to provide all the help needed in a very effective and efficient way. Being proactive, suggesting ways to solve and not just answering questions, and providing more knowledge about how the product should be used.
Think of Coralogix as a proactive teammate rather than just a passive tool. Unlike Datadog or New Relic, where you often pay a steep "tax" to index noise just to catch one error, Coralogix analyzes logs in-stream—saving you from surprise bills when containers get noisy. Its automatic clustering spots hidden issues without you writing endless rules, giving you instant clarity where others force you to dig.
GoCD is easier to setup, but harder to customize at runtime. There's no way to trigger a pipeline with custom parameters.
Jenkins is more flexible at runtime. You can define multiple user-provided parameters so when user needs to trigger a build, there's a form for him/her to input the parameters.
Settings.xml need to be backed up periodically. It contains all the settings for your pipelines! We accidentally deleted before and we have to restore and re-create several missing pipelines
More straight forward use of API and allows filtering e.g., pull all pipelines triggered after this date
