OpenShift Pipelines

Documentation deprecation notice: Please visit the OpenShift Pipelines documentation website for the latest documentation.

OpenShift Pipelines is a cloud-native, continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) solution based on Kubernetes resources. It uses Tekton building blocks to automate deployments across multiple platforms by abstracting away the underlying implementation details. Tekton introduces a number of standard Custom Resource Definitions (CRDs) for defining pipelines that are portable across Kubernetes distributions.

Key features

  • OpenShift Pipelines are designed for decentralized teams that work on microservice based architecture.

  • OpenShift Pipelines use standard CI/CD pipeline definitions that are easy to extend and integrate with the existing Kubernetes tools, enabling you to scale on-demand.

  • You can use Openshift Pipelines to build images with Kubernetes tools such as Source-to-Image (S2I), Buildah, Buildpacks, and Kaniko that are portable across any Kubernetes platform.

  • You can use the OpenShift Developer Console to create Tekton resources, view logs of pipeline runs, and manage pipelines under your OpenShift project namespaces.
