Centralized security has protected hybrid workloads and provides deep visibility into cloud traffic
Cloud-native automation and IaC: Terraform support, auto-scaling templates, and API maturity lag behind Palo Alto VM-Series and FortiGate-VM. Dynamically scaling in public cloud requires more manual effort. Third-party integrations and ecosystem: fewer native connectors with SIEM/SOAR platforms, CSPM, and third-party tools compared to market leaders. Documentation and training material: technical documentation and community resources (forums, tutorials, KB) are more limited, which lengthens the learning curve for new teams. SASE/SSE capabilities: the integrated SASE/ZTNA offering is less mature compared to the convergence already provided by Fortinet or Palo Alto. Centralized multi-instance management: managing large fleets of virtual appliances could be smoother; centralized management (HSM) works, but some users would like more granularity and automation.

Automation has accelerated deployments and standardizes pipelines while reducing operational errors
To improve Jenkins on CentOS 10, there are some challenges we ran into, especially when we first started using it. We missed clearer documentation, both for Jenkins as code and for some environment configurations. As a result, a lot of configurations were learned manually through tests with the team. We also missed more stable plugin updates. We had many problems with incompatibility between plugin versions in Jenkins on CentOS 10. What makes those situations challenging is that we had problems starting and restarting the Jenkins on CentOS 10 application when we needed to reuse plugins from the previous version. Once we updated some plugins to the required version, others became incompatible with the current version. It became a cycle where we had to update Jenkins on CentOS 10, the versions of the plugins we used, and the versions of the plugins they depended on, which made configuration and startup quite difficult in some cases.

Pros

"On balance, Hillstone CloudEdge is a solid and highly competitive solution within the virtual NGFW firewall segment."
"The most valuable aspect is the combination of traditional firewall functionality with cloud deployment flexibility."
"The most valuable aspect is the combination of traditional firewall functionality with cloud deployment flexibility."
"The most valuable aspect is the combination of traditional firewall functionality with cloud deployment flexibility."
"Hillstone CloudEdge Virtual Firewall provides advanced security for cloud and virtualized environments through next-generation firewall (NGFW) capabilities, including application visibility and control, intrusion prevention (IPS), antivirus protection, VPN services, threat intelligence, and advanced attack defense mechanisms."
"CloudEdge has helped us apply consistent security controls to our AWS workloads with our on-premises workloads."
"Jenkins on CentOS 10 has had a very positive impact on my organization. It gave us predictability and automation."
"By automating building, testing, and deployment, we spend less time on repetitive tasks and more time developing new features."
"The multi-branch pipeline has helped my team manage jobs and deployments more easily."
"Jenkins on CentOS 10 has impacted us positively, mainly because of the open-source nature, and we can customize it to run parallel jobs to reduce the amount of time taken for deployments, reducing it by approximately 40%."
"We are able to do things that we normally cannot do in other pipelines, such as GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, or GitLab CI itself."
"Jenkins on CentOS 10 has had a positive impact on my organization by improving speed, as the team can roll things out without having to watch manually."
"Jenkins on CentOS 10 is the main orchestrator that currently helps us ensure, in an automated way, the quality of the product we are delivering."
"My advice to other people who are thinking about using Jenkins on CentOS 10 is that they can use it. It is a very secure tool that speeds up processes and links other tools in a very secure and easy way."
 

Cons

"Additional automation resources for AWS would also be helpful."
"The setup cost is more expensive with similar features."
"Additional automation resources for AWS would also be helpful."
"Cloud-native automation and IaC: Terraform support, auto-scaling templates, and API maturity lag behind Palo Alto VM-Series and FortiGate-VM."
"I think the process of installing Jenkins on CentOS 10 in an environment could be improved in many cases."
"I give Jenkins on CentOS 10 a score of 8 because I see that some plugins are maintained by the community and are not actually supported by Jenkins."
"I believe Jenkins on CentOS 10 can be improved by allowing some customizations in the dashboard in a more immediate way."
"I would also suggest additional improvements to Jenkins on CentOS 10, including a better user interface, simpler plugin management, and stronger integration with cloud-native technologies."
"Jenkins on CentOS 10 is somewhat dated when compared to other pipelines."
"We missed clearer documentation, both for Jenkins as code and for some environment configurations."
"The difference from what I have presented is that they are easier to deal with regarding AI. GitHub Actions is already integrated with Copilot itself; if there is a build error, it explains in detail where it was and why it happened, and it asks if you want it to make the change. Azure is the same thing. I don't feel that in Jenkins on CentOS 10."
"I think Jenkins on CentOS 10 could be improved with more known features and plugins because we have a lot of plugins in my organization that I do not completely understand, and we face numerous alerts and security notifications that I do not really have knowledge of."
