As a DevOps engineer at Cloudify.co, I am building a new CI/CD pipeline based on Kubernetes and Jenkins. Recently I was dealing with the existent backup mechanism for Jenkins which stopped to work and I was in need of another solution. In this post, I will share my solution.
Let’s start.
What is Jenkins?
Jenkins is a self-contained, open source automation server which can be used to automate all sorts of tasks related to building, testing, and delivering or deploying software.
What is Jenkins Pipeline?
Jenkins Pipeline (or simply “Pipeline” with a capital “P”) is a suite of plugins that supports implementing and integrating continuous delivery pipelines into Jenkins.
Prerequisites
- Kubernetes cluster must be installed with Jenkins on top of it.
- Jenkins Kubernetes plugin must be installed on Jenkins.
- Service account with access to the Kubernetes cluster must be configured.
