Decision to use Jenkins

2014-11-04 Thread guest123
Hi All,

I am new to Jenkins...

My company is currently in the process to starting Continuous Integration 
project. we are currently evaluating Jenkins and other CI tools in the 
market.

Can anyone help help to answer my below queries

1)Is Jenkins opensource? or can we purchase jenkins license?

2) Is there a official support available for jenkins ? or we just have to 
rely on the mailing list?

3) Can you please send me links to the documents to start using Jenkins?

Thanks in advance

  “Normal” Jenkins is open source, and its documentation can be found at
 http://jenkins-ci.org.  There’s even a wiki.



 Official support comes from the vendor at http://cloudbees.com.  The most
 basic support is called Jenkins Enterprise, and it comes with some
 exclusive, non-free plugins (including one to generate data to send to the
 tech support guys when entering a ticket, rather than having a
 back-and-forth set of questions)


Ahem! We open sources 99.9% of that one
https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Support+Core+Plugin

(the 0.1% is just some extra info about the licensing as we may need to
diagnose problems with the license for the proprietary plugins)


 .  You can also let them host your Jenkins instance and slave nodes in
 their cloud; some companies are hesitant to hand copies of their source
 code over to a vendor to compile them, so this may or may not be an option
 for you.



 A company I used to work for used open source Jenkins for years on a
 sizeable build farm (over 300 slave nodes, and the nightly builds *still*
 queued up), then got Jenkins Enterprise.  Both worked rather well.
