Deploy Jenkins on Antyxsoft Cloud
The automation server that will build anything: pipelines as code, a plugin for every tool, and build minutes that cost the same whatever you run.
- By
- Jenkins / CDF
- Licence
- Open source — no additional charge
Create an instance, pick Marketplace App at the template step, and choose it from the list. You pay for the instance.
What Jenkins gives you
Jenkins is the long-standing automation server for continuous integration and delivery: pipelines defined in a Jenkinsfile alongside the code, distributed across agents, with a plugin ecosystem that reaches essentially every build tool, cloud and notification channel in use.
Self-hosting means build minutes are just instance time — a flat monthly cost rather than a per-minute meter — and build artefacts never leave your region.
Key features
- Pipelines as code. Declarative pipelines versioned with the repository.
- Distributed builds. Agents across instances for parallel and platform-specific work.
- Plugin ecosystem. Integrations for build tools, clouds, registries and chat.
- Credentials management. Secrets scoped to jobs and folders.
- Unlimited minutes. Build volume is bounded by the instance, not by a plan.
What is in the image
| Application | Latest LTS Jenkins release |
|---|---|
| Runtime | Java runtime and Jenkins service preconfigured |
| Access | Web interface on the instance address; root over SSH |
| Suggested size | From 2 vCPU / 4 GB RAM for the controller; add agents as needed |
Good fit for
- Heavy build loads Long or frequent builds where per-minute pricing stings.
- Regulated code Source and artefacts that must stay inside your region.
- Legacy toolchains A plugin exists for the tool nothing else supports.
Getting started
Four steps from sign-in to a running application. The full walkthrough, with screenshots, is in the knowledge base.
-
01
Log in to the Cloud Portal
Sign in at portal.antyxsoft.io and start creating an instance, choosing the region closest to your users.
-
02
At Select Template, open Marketplace App
In the instance creation flow, switch from operating-system images to the Marketplace App tab.
-
03
Pick the template and deploy
Select the ready-to-go template, confirm the plan and region, then review and deploy. The instance boots with the application installed.
-
04
Finish the application setup
Open the web interface, unlock Jenkins with the initial administrator password, install the plugins you need and connect your first repository.
Before it carries real traffic
- Attach a Cloud Firewall that opens only the ports this application needs, with management access limited to your own addresses.
- Schedule backups covering both the database and the application's data directory.
- Add a Block Storage volume for data that will outgrow the instance disk.
- Put it inside a VPC when it needs private access to other services.
Support
Antyxsoft supports the image and the infrastructure it runs on. Application-level questions are also covered by the upstream project's own documentation and community.
