The Overview of Jenkins
HI Hi, Greetings! 
Intimate February 
Today, I would like to share with you an article about the overview of Jenkins. I hope this article has more support DevOps Let's move to the article and I will explain the last part of this article.
PART 01:
Introduction :
Jenkins is a Java-based open-source Continuous Integration server that automates the Continuous Integration process by orchestrating a series of tasks. Jenkins supports the entire software development life cycle, including building, testing, documenting, deploying, and other stages.
Jenkins is a widely used application with over 300,000 installations worldwide and rising every day. Software firms may speed up their software development process by adopting Jenkins, which can automate build and test at a high pace.
It's a server-based application that necessitates the use of a web server such as Apache Tomcat. Jenkins software's popularity stems from its ability to track and monitor repetitive tasks that happen during the course of a project's development. For example, if your team is working on a project, Jenkins will continuously test your builds and alert you to any mistakes early on in the process.
History :
Kohsuke Kawaguchi, a Java developer at SUN Microsystems, was fed up with creating code and correcting bugs over and over again. Hudson, an automation server he designed in 2004, automates build and test tasks.
After a disagreement with the Hudson open source community in 2011, Oracle, who controlled Sun Microsystems, forked Hudson and renamed it, Jenkins.
Hudson and Jenkins continued to run their own businesses. Jenkins, on the other hand, accumulated a large number of contributors and projects in a short period of time, whereas Hudson only had 32 projects. Jenkins grew in popularity over time, and Hudson was no longer maintained.
Why do we need :
The development and operations teams collaborate throughout an application's software development life cycle (SDLC), from coding and testing through deployment and ongoing monitoring, in a DevOps approach. The procedure aids in the acceleration of delivery, stimulates more collaboration across teams, and establishes a dependable and scalable infrastructure.
Another important aspect of effective DevOps adoption is choosing and using the correct tools, which will facilitate information sharing and allow for a more efficient workflow.
Jenkins uses plugins to accomplish Continuous Integration. Plugins allow various DevOps stages to be integrated. If you want to integrate a certain tool, you must first install the tool's plugins. Git, Maven 2 projects, Amazon EC2, HTML publishers, and so on.
Organizations can use Jenkins to automate the software development process and speed up the process. Jenkins integrates a variety of development life-cycle operations, such as build, document, test, package, stage, deploy, static analysis, and more.
