DevOps

Day 7 of DevOps learning 🚀 :
- I have covered the basic theory of Jenkins.
👉 Jenkins is an open-source automation server widely used in DevOps to streamline software development by automating tasks like building, testing, and deploying applications. It enables Continuous Integration (CI) and Continuous Delivery (CD), helping teams deliver software faster and more reliably.

Key Features:
👉 CI/CD Automation: Integrates code changes, automates testing, and manages deployment pipelines.
👉 Plugins: Supports a vast ecosystem of plugins for various development tools.
👉 Distributed Builds: Can run multiple jobs across different machines, enabling scalability.
👉 Pipeline as Code: Allows defining build pipelines using code (Jenkinsfile), making it easier to maintain.
- Typical Workflow:
👉 Jenkins triggers builds and tests when code is committed to a repository like Git. It provides real-time feedback and can automatically deploy changes if all tests pass.
