CloudBees CD/RO use cases

Use case	Definition	Go to
Deployment automation	Executing automated application or microservice deployment processes, resulting in reduced costs, increase quality, reliability and traceability, and accelerated time to market. Deployment automation is a key enabler of Application Release Automation (ARA) and continuous delivery (CD).	Create applications and processes
Pipelines	Executing automated end-to-end software development and delivery processes, resulting in reduced costs, increase quality, reliability and traceability, and accelerated time to market. Pipeline management is a key enabler of Application Release Automation (ARA) and Continuous Delivery (CD).	Create and run pipelines
Release planning and management	The Release feature captures, executes, visualizes, and controls the life cycle of multi-application or multi-microservice enterprise releases, where outputs from multiple teams are coordinated to produce a final release to be pushed to production. Releases allow you to execute and manage automated software release processes (including end-to-end software development and delivery processes), enabling Application Release Automation (ARA) and Continuous Delivery (CD). You can use the Release feature to deliver software releases through traditional methods and/or ARA and CD methodology. CloudBees CD/RO manages all the releases, regardless of the release methodologies used by the release team.	Create and manage releases
