Buildkite vs Snap CI: What are the differences?
Developers describe Buildkite as "Fast, secure and scalable CI/CD for all your software projects". CI and build automation tool that combines the power of your own build infrastructure with the convenience of a managed, centralized web UI. Used by Shopify, Basecamp, Digital Ocean, Venmo, Cochlear, Bugsnag and more. On the other hand, Snap CI is detailed as "Build, test, and deploy software faster with Snap's continuous integration and deployment tool". Snap CI is a cloud-based continuous integration & continuous deployment tool with powerful deployment pipelines. Integrates seamlessly with GitHub and provides fast feedback so you can deploy with ease.
Buildkite and Snap CI can be categorized as "Continuous Integration" tools.
Some of the features offered by Buildkite are:
