Incredibuild vs Oracle Hudson CI comparison

Incredibuild, the world’s leading platform for development acceleration, lets you deliver faster developer cycles and shorten your time-top market with more compute power and lower costs on prem and the cloud.

Incredibuild enables every machine to use hundreds of cores to accelerate time-consuming software development by using idle CPUs in network or bursting to the cloud. Use the full potential of your network to raise product quality, iterate more frequently, and increase dev productivity.

Most importantly, Incredibuild works out of the box, no need to change any of your existing toolchain, processes, or code.

Hudson monitors the execution of repeated jobs, such as building a software project or jobs run by cron. Among those things, currently Hudson focuses on the following two jobs:

• Building/testing software projects continuously, just like CruiseControl or DamageControl. In a nutshell, Hudson provides an easy-to-use so-called continuous integration system, making it easier for developers to integrate changes to the project, and making it easier for users to obtain a fresh build. The automated, continuous build increases productivity.
• Monitoring executions of externally-run jobs, such as cron jobs and procmail jobs, even those that are run on a remote machine. For example, with cron, all you receive is regular e-mails that capture the output, and it is up to you to look at them diligently and notice when it broke. Hudson keeps those outputs and makes it easy for you to notice when something is wrong.
