Introducing Harness Open Source: Revolutionizing Software Delivery for Developers

We’re thrilled to announce the launch of Harness Open Source, the open-source edition of our enterprise platform. With Harness Open Source, developers can configure their cloud development environments, manage code repositories, build, test, deploy, and manage artifacts—all from a small DigitalOcean droplet or a laptop and with a single docker command.

Renowned organizations such as United Airlines reduced build times from 22 to 5 minutes by moving to the Harness Platform from Jenkins. With this new open source offering, we aim to extend these benefits to all software development teams, regardless of size or budget, and continue our commitment to open source endeavors.

One Product to Manage the Entire SDLC

Developers must often juggle multiple tools to set up development environments, manage code, build/deploy pipelines, and manage artifacts. Onboarding these tools and maintaining them is a huge pain. 

Harness Open Source offers developers a unified solution, eliminating the need to juggle multiple disjointed tools.

‍

Key capabilities of Harness Open Source include:

• Improve developer productivity by native code hosting and code reviews.
• Configure cloud development environments with pre-installed tools and integrate with IDEs such as Visual Studio Code to start coding.
• Build and deploy code faster with a fully integrated CI/CD pipeline that is feature-rich and easy to learn.
• Store and manage artifacts, including Docker images, Helm charts, and more.
• Create secure guardrails to do the right stuff and make it hard to do the wrong stuff with secret scanning, artifacts scanning, and more.
• 100+ integrations — integrate with your favorite tools, create custom integrations easily, and share with the community.

Get Started in Seconds with Harness Open Source

Harness Open Source is designed to be simple to install and use, thanks to its zero-friction Apache 2.0 licensing. Development teams can get started quickly and use its comprehensive capabilities to enhance their software delivery processes.

Setting up and getting started with Harness Open Source takes seconds. Developers can import the entire instances from GitHub, GitLab, Azure DevOps, Bitbucket, and other git-based tools using a single-click automated migration.

We are also hosting a workshop on October 9. Please register here for a hands-on experience with Harness Open Source. Also, please join our community Slack channel to learn more!

PS: Harness Open Source takes Gitness and Drone to the next level by offering an end-to-end software delivery platform that enhances productivity and accelerates software development cycles. Learn more here.
