Semaphore is an open-source CI/CD platform that automates building, testing, and deploying software from your Git repositories. It provides a pipeline-based workflow designed for fast feedback, parallel execution, and modern container and Kubernetes-oriented setups.

Key Features

  • YAML-based pipeline configuration for repeatable CI/CD workflows
  • Parallel job execution to reduce build and test times
  • Support for containerized jobs and Kubernetes-oriented delivery workflows
  • Pipeline promotions and staged workflows for controlled releases
  • Access control features for organizing teams and permissions
  • CLI and API for automating CI/CD management programmatically

Use Cases

  • Continuous integration for teams that need fast test and build feedback
  • Continuous delivery pipelines with gated promotions to staging and production
  • Running automated checks and deployments for containerized and Kubernetes apps

Semaphore combines a developer-friendly pipeline experience with the operational flexibility needed to run CI/CD on your own infrastructure. It fits teams looking for a full CI/CD system with strong performance characteristics and automation primitives for delivery workflows.
