GitLab is the engine that powers many software businesses. In a world where success requires developers to move quickly, it is important to ensure that end users can accomplish their work as quickly as possible, with minimal interruptions, and they have access to the latest and greatest that GitLab has to offer. The Distribution group's mission is to set companies up for success by making it easy to deploy, maintain, and update a self-managed GitLab instance and ensure it is highly available for their users.
Today we have a mature and easy to use Omnibus based build system, which is the most common method for deploying a self-managed instance of GitLab. It includes everything a customer needs to run GitLab all in a single package, and is great for installing on virtual machines or real hardware. We are committed to making our package easier to work with, providing a first-class solution for database fault tolerance, and improving the zero-downtime upgrade experience.
