It combines with JFrog’s industry-leading artifact repository management, distribution, and security vulnerability scanning solutions to provide a comprehensive DevOps pipeline solution.
Automation and Efficiency
Shippable’s technology is often described as an “assembly line” for software development, aiming to make the process as efficient and automated as possible. This includes automating various stages of the development lifecycle, from build and test to deployment and monitoring.
Hybrid and Universal Compatibility
As part of the JFrog platform, Shippable supports both on-premise and cloud deployments, or a mix of both, providing flexibility based on the user’s environment. It also integrates with leading CI servers and other DevOps tools, ensuring compatibility and scalability.
Enhanced Development Workflows
By incorporating Shippable, JFrog customers can automate their development processes more comprehensively, from code commit to production. This includes managing and analyzing software development workflows all the way from source control to distribution.
Conclusion
In summary, Shippable, as part of the JFrog platform, offers a robust CI/CD solution that automates and streamlines software development and delivery processes, making it an invaluable tool for enterprises seeking to enhance their DevOps capabilities.
