    Chose Spinnaker
    Even Jenkins being originally a Continuous Integration solution, I've used it as a Continuous Deployment solution as well, but Spinnaker brought to me a more focused approach allowing us to spend less time by creating and managing pipelines. While on Jenkins we need to install …

    We get a centralised view of all pipelines in single place. This helps for a large enterprise. Maven is very popular, so generating RPM from existing POM.xml is cool!

    Spinnaker suits well for applications which are stateless and can adapt to an immutable architecture of deployment. But for applications which are stateful and cannot afford to spin up new servers for every deployment doesn't go well with Spinnaker. It can handle only deployments which are VM based and cannot support deployments to serverless architecture like AWS Lambda etc.

    Cons
    Netflix
    • It does NOT support CFN based deployments
    • Windows based systems finds it difficult to onboard to Spinnaker.
    • Pipeline level access authorisation is not there.
    • Support for EBS volume encryption is probably missing.
    • Attach/detach EBS volumes during deployments is difficult.
    • No support to deploy the artifacts without re-creating the servers. Only pure immutable deployment are allowed.
    • Open-source - so good and bad!
    • Spinnaker on its own has 10 underlying micro services. Managing Spinnaker needs a focussed platform approach.
    • User authentication is easy but authorisation management is not straight forward.
