• Share a standard Pipeline across multiple projects with Shared Libraries

  This is a guest post by Philip Stroh, Software Architect at TimoCom. When building multiple microservices - e.g. with Spring Boot - the integration and delivery pipelines of your services will most likely be very similar. Surely, you don’t want to copy-and-paste Pipeline code from one Jenkinsfile to another if you develop a new service or if there are adaptions in your delivery process. Instead you...

• Parallel stages with Declarative Pipeline 1.2

  After a few months of work on its key features, I’m happy to announce the 1.2 release of Declarative Pipeline!

• CI/CD with Jenkins Pipeline and Azure

  This is a guest post by Pui Chee Chen, Product Manager at Microsoft working on Azure DevOps open source integrations. Recently, we improved the Azure Credential plugin by adding a custom binding for Azure Credentials which allows you to use an Azure service principal (the analog to a service or system account) via the Credentials Binding plugin.

• Pipeline Development Tools

  This is a guest post by Liam Newman, Technical Evangelist at CloudBees. I’ve only been working with Pipeline for about a year. Pipeline in and of itself has been a huge improvement over old-style Jenkins projects. As a developer, it has been so great be able work with Jenkins Pipelines using the same tools I use for writing any other kind of code. I’ve also found...
