View full review »The solution is scalable and has a large number of plugins that can help you scale it to your needs.
View full review »Jenkins' scalability is good because we can connect it to as many repositories as possible. I can create a hierarchy of jobs and set up a proper workflow to trigger the jobs in sequence. One level of the hierarchy is the build steps, and on top of those, we have hierarchy of jobs. Each job can trigger another job as well.
We use Jenkins throughout the entire organization to deploy a lot of applications. Every software development team in my organization uses Jenkins. Our developers have standardized the process and created another tool on top of the Jenkins server.
More than five people are using the solution in our organization.
View full review »I rate the solution's scalability somewhere between seven to eight out of ten. Approximately five to ten people in my company are using Jenkins. If we plan to get more modules in our company, we will have to increase the number of employees. Currently, we don't have any plans to increase the use of the solution.

I have used the stand-alone Jenkins systems and I have other slaves configured with different systems or Docker containers and it has been operating well.
The scalable depends on the environment, if you want to have scalability it is possible. However, if there was a specific option to scale Jenkins systems it would be great.
We have approximately 250 users using this solution.

We're using it for a large application and haven't had any issues. It's a bit close sometimes; however, it doesn't crash at regular intervals. Sometimes there might be some server down or something that might cause an issue.
I'd rate the scalability nine out of ten.
We have about 300 or more people using the solution. We tend to use the product on a weekly basis.

It is scalable because the Jenkins jobs are in AWS, whereas the deployments are being done on-premises. My understanding is that these will be brought on-premises as well.
We have 10 plus users for the database and application teams. We have less than 50 databases.

We have many departments using this solution in my company, such as DevOps and Automation teams.

The solution is very scalable, I probably have around 60 people using it, mainly developers checking whether there are any errors. We have around 10, 15 QA people, power users, and another 40, 45 developers looking at it. The solution is being extensively used but we only need one person to deal with maintenance.

If you're deploying on-premise, then scalability requires introducing new nodes and deploying application instances on two servers. We have multiple teams and they all have access to Jenkins so we currently have around 60 to 70 users.

Scalability is one of the challenging parts. Before the Docker area, we had a lot of challenges in terms of scaling because in one product, we had version 2.215, and in another product, we had a different version. If you want to migrate from one version to another or if you want to pull a different product, it took some time. It took two weeks time to set it up in a different environment. With the help of Kubernetes and Docker, we are able to spin off a couple of clusters with the Jenkins master. It is helping us a lot.
We have around 4,000 users for multiple Jenkins. We are a product-based company. Our products are built daily by using Jenkins. Out of 4,000, 60% of the users are using it for development and continuous release purposes. It is also used for nightly builds.

The solution is scalable. We can also add users for the particular solution, but that does not apply to the free version. We use the enterprise edition. Enterprise edition means it creates the domain for automation. Public members, can't access this edition, so if you're adding users for your members or groups, you have to go for the land visitation and the maintenance.
In my organization, over 50 users use this solution, specifically developers and QA leads. Not everyone has access to Jenkins because of the use of only one username and password. For example, if I'm developing scripts, my team members also develop them, and we push into the solution. But for Jenkins, it's only one access.

We have a master node, and the slave nodes are containers, so it's quite robust and scalable with that plugin for us. Even if we have a lot of jobs running at one time — sometimes it's 30 to 50 jobs running — it's cloud infrastructure. It's going to spin up automatically. The nodes are auto-scaling for the Kubernetes, and you can spin up containers on top of that, so it's quite scalable for us.

View full review »Jenkins is scalable because it is open source and it integrates with other third-party vendor tools which are currently in the market, such as Microsoft Azure or Amazon AWS. It gets very well integrated with all the new tools, it doesn't remain isolated.
We have multiple projects that are using this solution and each project has multiple users. In one project we could have 50 users or in another 10 users are using it.
