Spinnaker - A deployment orchestration and security automation tool for managing multi-cloud deployment with integrated security controls. https://github.com/spinnaker/spinnaker

Spinnaker is an open-source, multi-cloud continuous delivery platform originally developed at Netflix and now maintained by the Continuous Delivery Foundation (CDF). It empowers organizations to release software changes with high velocity and confidence by providing a robust set of tools for creating, managing, and automating deployment pipelines across various cloud providers and technologies.

• **Multi-Cloud Support:** Spinnaker supports a wide range of cloud providers, including AWS, GCP, Azure, Kubernetes, and more. This enables you to deploy and manage your applications across multiple cloud environments using a consistent platform.
• **Deployment Strategies:** Spinnaker offers various deployment strategies, including blue/green deployments, canary releases, and rolling updates, allowing you to minimize risks and ensure smooth application rollouts.
• **Automated Canary Analysis:** It integrates with monitoring and observability tools to perform automated canary analysis, comparing the performance and health of new and existing versions of your application to make informed deployment decisions.
• **Pipeline Management:** Spinnaker's powerful pipeline management system allows you to define complex deployment pipelines with multiple stages, approvals, and notifications.
• **Infrastructure as Code:** Spinnaker encourages an infrastructure-as-code approach, enabling you to define your pipelines and configurations in version-controlled files.
• **Extensibility:** Spinnaker's plugin architecture allows for easy integration with various tools and services, extending its functionality and adapting it to your specific needs.

• **Accelerated Deployments:** Spinnaker automates and streamlines the software delivery process, enabling faster and more frequent releases.
• **Reduced Risk:** Its support for various deployment strategies and automated canary analysis helps minimize the risk of failed deployments and ensures smoother rollouts.
• **Improved Collaboration:** Spinnaker's pipeline management and infrastructure-as-code approach foster collaboration between development, operations, and security teams.
• **Multi-Cloud Flexibility:** Its multi-cloud support allows you to choose the best cloud providers for your applications and avoid vendor lock-in.
• **Extensibility:** The plugin system allows you to integrate Spinnaker with your existing tools and services, enhancing its capabilities.

While Spinnaker primarily operates through its web-based user interface and pipeline configurations, here are a few conceptual code snippets to illustrate its usage:

1. **Pipeline Definition (JSON):**

```json {

 "name": "My Pipeline",
 "stages": [
   {
     "type": "bake",
     "name": "Bake Image",
     "regions": ["us-west-2"],
     "bakeConfig": {
       "package": "myapp-1.0.0.tgz",
       "baseOs": "ubuntu",
       "baseAmi": "ami-0c55b159cbfafe1f0"
     }
   },
   {
     "type": "deploy",
     "name": "Deploy to Staging",
     "clusters": [
       {
         "application": "my-app",
         "account": "my-aws-account",
         "stack": "staging",
         "freeFormDetails": "",
         "cloudProvider": "aws"
       }
     ]
   }
 ]

2. **Canary Configuration (JSON):**

```json {

 "name": "Canary Analysis",
 "analysisType": "realTimeAutomatic",
 "canaryConfig": {
   "lifetimeDuration": "PT30M",
   "metricsAccountName": "my-metrics-account",
   "scopes": [
     {
       "scopeName": "default",
       "controlScope": "baseline",
       "experimentScope": "canary"
     }
   ]
 }

3. **Webhook Trigger (JSON):**

```json {

 "type": "webhook",
 "source": "jenkins",
 "payloadConstraints": {
   "eventType": "build_success"
 }

These examples demonstrate how Spinnaker's pipelines can be configured to define complex workflows, incorporate canary analysis, and be triggered by external events like Jenkins builds.
