What is Spinnaker?
Spinnaker is an open-sourced continuous delivery platform for releasing software changes with high-velocity and confidence. Spinnaker was created at Netflix and is used by companies like Google, Armory, and Adobe.
Spinnaker provides the building blocks to create customized delivery pipelines. This solution reduces risk and the need to create your own delivery approach. There is usually a solution available through Spinnaker and it is already trusted and developed by major companies like Netflix and Google for handling the delivery of thousands of applications.
Spinnaker’s Origin
Before Spinnaker, Netflix used to have a splintered continuous delivery system. Each system was customized for each organization, and those customizations could not provide support to others. All of this duplicated effort made it difficult to keep up with the latest and best delivery practices.
This changed in 2014. The teams at Netflix decided they needed a new tool that would provide them with a safer and more flexible platform. Netflix’s delivery engineering team collaborated with Google to build Spinnaker. This multi-cloud continuous delivery and infrastructure management tool would be flexible enough to let teams customize their own delivery, but standardized enough to bring best practices and safety to everyone.
