Automation processes and requirements have developed rapidly in recent years. Cloud, SaaS, PaaS, AaaS, Kubernetes, Docker, and many more technologies were invented to simplify the complexity and management of huge IT applications. Communication with external APIs and services for CI/CD is simply essential nowadays and hard to do right with simple configuration specs.
DevOps becomes more and more important and many developers are scared of this word because it usually implies writing endless lines of YAML/JSON configuration files to automate complex automation tasks.
Gaia is one self-contained binary which can be started without any configuration. Just download, unarchive and start it. We also provide various docker images ready to pull. You prefer to have all your tools running in Kubernetes? Don't worry, we also provide a helm chart.
Programming language independent Gaia is programming language independent and technically any programming language can be used to write pipelines. At this point of time, we officially support Go, Java, Python, C++, Ruby and Node.js. Your favorite language is not supported? Open a new issue and request it!
First class support for tests Test your pipelines and write unit tests like you already do for your applications. No excuses anymore to do testing right for your automation pipelines.
Simple and efficient Gaia comes with the automatic build feature for pipelines. Simply push your code to a git repository. Gaia automatically clones your code repository, compiles your code to a binary and executes it on-demand.
Open-source Gaia is open-source and will always be! Feel free to have a look at the source code, discuss new features and help us to improve it!
