What CDS (Continuous Delivery Service) is

CDS (Continuous Delivery Service) is a free, open-source platform for continuous delivery and DevOps automation. It is self-hosted, with Docker Compose and binary setup guides for running an instance. Workflows can include builds, tests, deployments, manual or automatic gates, rollbacks, and conditional branches. The web interface lets users create and run workflows and inspect logs, while the cdsctl command line can script platform operations and browse projects and workflows. Project users can manage pipelines and delegate access within their projects.

Listed integrations include GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Gerrit, Kubernetes, OpenStack, Kafka, RabbitMQ, LDAP, OpenID Connect, and Artifactory. Local, LDAP, GitHub, and GitLab authentication backends can be enabled together. Users can create actions, and plugins support custom actions. CDS workers are compatible with Linux, macOS, FreeBSD, and Windows on 386, amd64, arm, or arm64 architectures. The project lists API, Linux, macOS, self-hosted, web, and Windows among its platforms. Its Docker Compose tutorial cautions that the described setup should not be used for production without modification. CDS lists pipeline as code, approval gates, and progressive delivery as supported capabilities.
