ServiceNow DevOps is designed to reduce friction between IT operations and development. This DevOps tool allows businesses to minimize risk while scaling DevOps initiatives.
It works at scale and a large number of accessible pipelines for searching, repository updates and indexing will become easier. JFrog provides end-to-end solutions for all DevOps needs. With this, Jfrog Artifactory specifically implements the management of highly available repositories, with a smooth interface and integration with all the main CI tools on the market.
ServiceNow DevOps is suitable for IT companies that are medium to large, It is great when it comes to keeping a track of all the activities, it takes a very little amount of time for creating tickets, with a small amount of information. It is a good tool for incident management, and change management. It will be less suitable for small-scale companies.
The main problem that seems intractable is getting the checksum of the artifact. Managing container artifacts is a game changer for us during project execution, as the container artifact type exposes all base image and Docker file steps. This makes debugging or analysis easier. Jfrog Artifactory provides promotion feature and can automated from one environment repo to another environment repo before the deployment occurs.
Support tickets take days to respond. The most basic of questions that should be knocked out in a few hours don't get answers for days. Tickets are also closed without resolution.
JFrog Artifactory has a much more friendly GUI, making package exploration less of a chore to do. Other than that, their features are pretty much comparable to each other. Both support multiple types of packages; both have API that can integrate well with CI/CD pipelines.
As mentioned previously, not sure if ServiceNow DevOps can handle tickets in an agile methodology, where everything is setup based on Sprints, stories and the whole agile terminology. We use OpsGenie to setup shifts for Production support teams, OpsGenie alerts people through a mobile app about production issues as well as to whom is Oncall support for multiple teams. Not sure this functionality is there in ServiceNow DevOps. For now those 3 applications are handling different functions in our company and would be difficult for me to compare them
So many times it happens at the time of dependency resolution some of the servers are down e.g NPM, Maven central, PiPy in that cause our builds starts failing. By proxying these repositories with JFrog this is never happened again.
It reduced the additional cost of container image registry and management effort.
Support of integration with Build, Monitoring, and CI tools resulted in smooth automation and management.
