Your pipeline wasn't built for this much traffic

Pipelines built for human-paced commits start to buckle when agents begin pushing code at machine speed.

Coding got faster with AI. If build, test, and deploy don't speed up with it, that gain gets stuck at the commit — not shipped. Automate build, test, package, and deploy from commit to production so the speed you gained in the IDE reaches the finish line.

Don't let your pipeline hold you back

Copy-pasted config, a main branch that's never stable, pipelines too slow to give fast feedback — none of that is inevitable or the cost of growing.

Learn how to get started
The GitLab CI/CD Catalog listing reusable pipeline components such as OpenTofu, SAST, and Code Quality

Scale your CI/CD pipelines with:

  • CI/CD Catalog: No more copy-pasting the same pipeline config into every new project. Publish versioned, reusable components once.

  • Component Analytics: See how your shared CI/CD components are being adopted, and which projects are running outdated versions.

  • Merge trains: Stop babysitting a red main branch caused by conflicting merges landing back-to-back.

  • Parent-child pipelines + DAG execution: Split growing pipelines into independent sub-pipelines so testing starts the moment a dependency finishes.

  • Cross-project pipelines: Catch a frontend change that breaks the backend before it ships.

  • Hosted runners: Run CI/CD jobs without provisioning or maintaining your own infrastructure.

Stop discovering security problems after they ship

Catch vulnerabilities and generate compliance evidence while code is still in the pipeline, not when it's a fire drill.

Learn about Security & Compliance

Build security and governance into your pipeline with:

  • Continuous vulnerability scanning: No more surprise vulnerabilities in a dependency you haven't touched in months.

  • SAST: Catch vulnerabilities in your own code before deployment, instead of after a customer or auditor finds them.

  • Pipeline inputs: Close off variable injection by default instead of leaving pipeline customization open to anyone with trigger access.

  • Compliance pipelines: Skip the tradeoff between speed and compliance: policy enforced as code runs at the same speed as your pipeline.

Deploy without holding your breath

Confidently and consistently release software with enterprise-level delivery tools.

Release your software with:

  • Progressive delivery: Test in production with a small slice of your user base first.

  • Canary deployments: Catch problems while the blast radius is small, not after they've reached every user.

  • Deployment flexibility: Deploy to virtual machines, Kubernetes clusters, or FaaS from multiple cloud vendors, without re-architecting your pipeline for every target.

Stop spending a week auditing what's actually running

Once a component or pipeline template ships, it's easy to lose track of where it's running, which version, and whether it's quietly getting worse. That is, until something breaks and you're auditing repo by repo to find out.
