CloudBees vs Deis: What are the differences?

Developers describe CloudBees as "Enterprise Jenkins and DevOps". Enables organizations to build, test and deploy applications to production, utilizing continuous delivery practices. They are focused solely on Jenkins as a tool for continuous delivery both on-premises and in the cloud. On the other hand, Deis is detailed as "Open Source PaaS that builds upon Docker and CoreOS to provide a lightweight PaaS with a Heroku-inspired workflow". Deis can deploy any application or service that can run inside a Docker container. In order to be scaled horizontally, applications must follow Heroku's 12-factor methodology and store state in external backing services.

CloudBees and Deis can be primarily classified as "Platform as a Service" tools.

Some of the features offered by CloudBees are:

• Hosted CI/CD as a Service
• Flexible and governed software delivery automation
• Starter Kit

On the other hand, Deis provides the following key features:

• Deis can deploy any language or framework using a Dockerfile
• If you don't have a Dockerfile, Deis includes Heroku buildpacks for Ruby, Python, Node.js, Java, Clojure, Scala, Play, PHP, Perl, Dart and Go.
• Deis can be deployed on any system that supports CoreOS including your workstation, as well as most public clouds, private clouds and bare metal.
