Jenkins and Kubernetes - Secret Agents in the Clouds

At long last, the way we build and deploy software is finally changing and significantly so. The days of the persnickety, prima donna build machine where monolithic applications were built, tested, and deployed are numbered.

The plugin (and the associated static analysis plugin suite) has been part of the Jenkins plugin eco-system for more than ten years now.

Scaling Network Connections from the Jenkins Controller

Oleg Nenashev and I will be speaking at DevOps World | Jenkins World in San Francisco this year about Scaling Network Connections from the Jenkins Controller. Over the years there have been many efforts to analyze, optimize, and fortify the “Remoting channel” that allows a controller to orchestrate agent activity and receive build results. Techniques such as tuning the agent launcher can improve service, but...
