    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.

    It provides a cloud-based integrated development environment that integrates with other IBM Cloud services to provide a streamlined development workflow. This includes real-time collaboration and code sharing capabilities, making it easy for teams to work together on projects. This feature is very useful for our app to maintain the code

    Pros
    ThoughtWorks
    • 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.

    • Its price is quite high and this made it unsuitable for us as we cannot afford such high rates.
    • Its Setup takes much longer time and this is frustrating.
    • Its interface needs to be improved and easy even for the Newbies.

    It's a great platform to develop, run, test and deploy the applications easily. And it makes very easier and secure the implementation of continuous delivery process. For first time and experts also can use this service so easily. Great service provided by the IBM Cloud Continuous Service. There are more services that helps a lot to work on it. Thanks a lot.

    In more than a year using the IBM Cloud Continuous Delivery tool, I haven't had any major complaints or problems. However, in the last month, IBM suffered from a couple of problems through several of its services, and for a short period of time, I couldn't deploy successfully my projects. The problem was brief and was quickly fixed.

    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.

    We chose IBM Cloud Developer Tools for multiple reasons. Cost, current infrastructure vendor list, and Cloud Operations team experience were key driving factors for us. Palo Alto's Prisma Cloud product was slick for sure but we found it more difficult to deploy and integrate with our current environment and applications

    Return on Investment
    ThoughtWorks
    • ROI has been good since it's open source
    • 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

    • This has made the configuration files much easier to access.
    • Has made the commands more logical as well as easy for use and learning.
    • Contains great AI capabilities
    • The documentation needs improvement.
    • Error received from commands are pretty hard to understand.
