CloudBees has collaborated with Red Hat to achieve Red Hat OpenStack certification for the CloudBees Jenkins Platform - Private SaaS Edition.

CloudBees is the first continuous delivery and DevOps platform to be certified on Red Hat OpenStack. The certification offers confidence that Private SaaS Edition has been tested and certified for use with Red Hat OpenStack Platform to provide consistent performance and compatibility.

The CloudBees Jenkins Platform - Private SaaS Edition provides cloud-native capabilities. Private SaaS Edition provides enterprises the ability to centrally-manage a Jenkins-powered Continuous Delivery as a Service with all the advantages of a cloud-based solution: elasticity, scalability and built-in failover resiliency. With Private SaaS Edition, enterprises can provision and deploy Jenkins in minutes on Red Hat OpenStack Platform, and software delivery teams can spin up and use Jenkins in a self-service fashion. With instant access to Jenkins resources as needed, teams are unencumbered waiting for resources to be secured, eliminating wasted time and speeding up software delivery.

“Enterprise demand for Jenkins-based, on-premise shared services guided our development of Private SaaS Edition,” said Harpreet Singh, VP of Products, CloudBees. “Private SaaS Edition gives enterprises the ability to run an internally-managed Jenkins as a Service on the Red Hat OpenStack Platform. With CloudBees and Red Hat, IT teams gain the ability to provision and deploy Jenkins in minutes and scale resources up and down, as needed. Accelerating software delivery just got a whole lot easier.”

Red Hat is a leader in the upstream OpenStack community and also in its work to deliver a production-ready OpenStack offering to customers around the world. Red Hat OpenStack Platform is a highly scalable Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) solution that delivers an open, flexible and enterprise-ready private cloud foundation built on the community OpenStack project integrated with and optimized for Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
