Jenkins Distributed Builds
Jenkins Distributed Builds
Jenkins is a popular open-source automation server for continuous integration and delivery (CI/CD). One of its powerful features is the ability to perform distributed builds.
Distributed Builds
Distributed builds allow Jenkins to distribute the workload of running jobs across multiple machines, which can help scale your build infrastructure, improve performance, and reduce build times.
Jenkins Distributed Workflow
Jenkins distributed build uses the Jenkins Master-Slave Architecture.
The Jenkins master server manages the overall system, including scheduling build jobs, dispatching builds to slaves, and monitoring their progress.
Jenkins agents ( slaves ) that execute build jobs. Slaves can run on different operating systems and configurations, allowing you to run builds in various environments.
Build Executors are threads that can run different builds concurrently on the agent. Each agent can have multiple build executors. You can assign labels to slaves to indicate the type of jobs they can run. Jobs can be configured to run on specific labeled slaves.
