Using uDeploy with Hudson / Jenkins

Hudson and Jenkins, together, are the most common team-level Continuous Integration tools available today. But how do we link these development focused tools into the formal releases managed by operations and release management?

This webcast looks at the handoff from Jenkins to uDeploy by UrbanCode. Jenkins supports the developers, while uDeploy ties multiple builds together into a release set called a "snapshot" for consistent deployments across environments.

About UrbanCode

UrbanCode enables organizations to deliver software to production servers faster (physical, virtual, or cloud); resulting in decreased time to market, and accelerated pace of innovation through end-to-end software delivery. uDeploy, our Deployment Automation product, establishes repeatable, error-free, scalable application deployment processes, and provides visibility into what version is where. uBuild, our Build Management product, establishes repeatable and traceable build processes for large organizations with hundreds or thousands of developers, and provides visibility into organizational best practices; allowing development teams to scale while maintaining quality. Our approach is to harness the innate capabilities of computers to handle repetitive tasks in an error-free manner, thus freeing employees to engage in critical thinking, creativity, and problem solving.
