Can anyone please tell me who to contact  (at the Jenkins parent company)  to ask about buying a commercial/paid version of Jenkins ?

The government agency I work for has asked me to start researching this.

Please advise.

Based on a Google search, it appears that CLOUD BEES is the current parent company of Jenkins.

https://www.cloudbees.com

Correct?

We are curious about the pricing options.

We have a large end-user community of software developers that use our current (FREE/OLD) Jenkins systems.

And thanks.

Hi @jodove ,

I did not find any price on their website.
You should maybe ask them directly on their web page: https://www.cloudbees.com/jenkins#contact-us .

Thanks for the quick reply.

I was thinking CLOUD BEES was the parent company.

No such entity exists. Jenkins is an independent open source project and the trademark is owned by LF Charities (~the Linux Foundation).

Multiple vendors offer commercially supported Jenkins. CloudBees (my employer) is one of them, and the one with the most staff actively involved in the Jenkins project.

If you are looking for FedRAMP support, AFAIK there is no commercial option for that and there is limited support for FIPS with Jenkins itself.

I’m not a CloudBees employee or customer but I think your best bet is to contact their sales as they can provide you with a version of Jenkins with more Enterprise features such as HA.

Thanks everyone for the very quick replies.

(Disclaimer: I am also a CloudBees employee)
On FedRamp and FIPS: note that CloudBees CI, our Jenkins-based offering, is already available on the US Department of Defense’s “Iron Bank”.

We are also actively working on offering a FIPS-compliant version of CloudBees CI.

Here’s our public information on this: Securing Government Cloud Deployments: CloudBees’ Path to FedRAMP Compliance and Beyond

Quick question

Do you have an approximate release date on FIPS-compliant version Cloud Bees CI ?

Excellent, looking forward to it!

FYI: At the moment the Securing Government Cloud Deployments: CloudBees’ Path to FedRAMP Compliance and Beyond page starts with descriptions of two different “High” levels and one “Low”. Should one of those Highs be “Medium” or something similar?
