Complete DevOps with GitLab

GitLab is the first single application for software development, security, and operations that enables Concurrent DevOps, making the software lifecycle three times faster and radically improving the speed of business. GitLab provides solutions for all the stages of the DevOps lifecycle: plan, create, verify, package, release, configure, monitor.

DevOps Lifecycle

Plan

Whether you use Waterfall, Agile, or Conversational Development, GitLab streamlines your collaborative workflows. Visualize, prioritize, coordinate, and track your progress your way with GitLabs flexible project management tools.

Migrate and import your projects from other platforms

Create

Consolidate source code into a single DVCS thats easily managed and controlled without disrupting your workflow. GitLabs git repositories come complete with branching tools and access controls, providing a scalable, single source of truth for collaborating on projects and code.

Projects and groups

Repositories

Manage your repositories from the UI (user interface):

Integrations

  • Project Services: Integrate a project with external services, such as CI and chat.
  • GitLab Integration: Integrate with multiple third-party services with GitLab to allow external issue trackers and external authentication.
  • Trello Power-Up: Integrate with GitLab's Trello Power-Up

Automation

  • API: Automate GitLab via a simple and powerful API.
  • GitLab Webhooks: Let GitLab notify you when new code has been pushed to your project.

Verify

Spot errors sooner and shorten feedback cycles with built-in code review, code testing, Code Quality, and Review Apps. Customize your approval workflow controls, automatically test the quality of your code, and spin up a staging environment for every code change. GitLab Continuous Integration is the most popular next generation testing system that auto scales to run your tests faster.

Package

GitLab Container Registry gives you the enhanced security and access controls of custom Docker images without 3rd party add-ons. Easily upload and download images from GitLab CI/CD with full Git repository management integration.

  • GitLab Container Registry: Learn how to use GitLab's built-in Container Registry.

Release

Spend less time configuring your tools, and more time creating. Whether youre deploying to one server or thousands, build, test, and release your code confidently and securely with GitLabs built-in Continuous Delivery and Deployment.

  • GitLab Pages: Build, test, and deploy a static site directly from GitLab.
  • Auto Deploy: Configure GitLab CI for the deployment of your application.
  • Environments and deployments: With environments, you can control the continuous deployment of your software within GitLab.

Configure

Automate your entire workflow from build to deploy and monitoring with GitLab Auto Devops. Best practice templates get you started with minimal to zero configuration. Then customize everything from buildpacks to CI/CD.

Monitor

Measure how long it takes to go from planning to monitoring and ensure your applications are always responsive and available. GitLab collects and displays performance metrics for deployed apps using Prometheus so you can know in an instant how code changes impact your production environment.
