Jenkins 2022 and Beyond?
summary
Jenkins claims to remain a flexible automation framework with about 5,000 contributors and roughly 1,800 plugins, but it is controller‑heavy, not cloud‑native, and carries decade‑old compatibility debt. Recent work adds pipeline as code, configuration as code, Helm charts and a Kubernetes operator, UI fixes, and a stalled but viable Jenkinsfile Runner. The roadmap pushes interoperability: make Tekton as first-class pipeline engine, add OpenTelemetry and CD‑events, and modularize the pipeline engine so other orchestrators can be plugged in.
