Techniques for Integrating Jenkins with Kubernetes for Efficient Workload Management

Sri Harsha Vardhan Sanne

Abstract: The integration of Jenkins, an open - source automation server, with Kubernetes, the leading container orchestration platform, has emerged as a crucial paradigm for streamlining DevOps workflows and achieving efficient workload management in modern software development environments. This review research paper explores various techniques and best practices for seamlessly integrating Jenkins with Kubernetes to enhance automation, scalability, and reliability in managing software deployment pipelines. The paper begins by providing a comprehensive overview of Jenkins and Kubernetes, elucidating their respective functionalities and significance in contemporary DevOps practices. It then delves into the challenges encountered in traditional CI/CD (Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment) workflows and how the integration of Jenkins with Kubernetes addresses these challenges by leveraging containerization, dynamic resource allocation, and declarative infrastructure management. Moreover, the paper surveys the diverse approaches and methodologies employed for integrating Jenkins with Kubernetes, encompassing native Kubernetes plugins, custom Kubernetes agents, and third - party solutions. It critically analyzes the strengths and limitations of each integration method, considering factors such as scalability, security, and ease of implementation. Furthermore, the review highlights key considerations and best practices for optimizing the Jenkins - Kubernetes integration, including configuration management, load balancing, and monitoring strategies. It examines real - world case studies and industry use cases to illustrate the practical implementation and benefits of integrating Jenkins with Kubernetes across different deployment scenarios and organizational contexts. This paper underscores the transformative impact of integrating Jenkins with Kubernetes on enhancing DevOps agility, accelerating software delivery cycles, and ensuring robust workload management. It offers valuable insights and guidance for practitioners, developers, and DevOps engineers seeking to harness the full potential of this integration paradigm for modern software development environments.
