Supercharge GitHub Actions with CloudBees: Enterprise DevOps Without Disruption

3 min read

At CloudBees, we believe in open, flexible solutions that let organizations modernize at their own pace, build on what already works, and bring structure and security to even the most complex DevOps pipelines.

That’s why, for CloudBees customers whose teams rely on GitHub Actions (GHA), there’s good news: you can now bring those workflows across all repositories directly into CloudBees Unify, gaining enterprise governance, visibility, and orchestration benefits without disrupting how your developers work.

CloudBees Adds Enterprise Control for GitHub Actions Users 

Most large enterprises today manage dozens (sometimes hundreds) of DevOps tools, stitched together by scripts, siloed knowledge, and best-effort governance. As organizations scale, DevOps leaders face a growing tangle of disconnected pipelines that created blindspots, introduce security vulnerabilities, and make it harder to enforce consistent standards, especially in regulated environments.

Until now, GitHub Actions workflows existed outside CloudBees Unify’s full capabilities, supported through basic integrations with limited insight. Meanwhile, Tekton pipelines built natively in CloudBees benefited from full lifecycle traceability, policy enforcement, and visualization.

With the new GHA integration, that gap is closed.

What CloudBees Customers Gain


CloudBees customers can now extend Unify’s full benefits to their GHA workflows:

  • Business Context Mapping: Associate repositories and workflows with constructs like applications, components, and teams for organized, business-aligned pipelines and dashboards

  • Built-In Security Scans: Automatically scan newly introduced source and artifact updates in real-time, even when builds run entirely in GitHub

  • Cross-Tool  Visibility: Consolidate performance metrics across GHA, Jenkins, Tekton, and more

  • AI-Powered Insights: Identify bottlenecks and risks in real-time, enabling faster resolution and innovation cycles

  • Enterprise-Grade Deployments: Automatically enforce policies and coordinate releases across environments

  • Integrated Governance: Continuous compliance controls enforced automatically across every workflow 

  • No Replatforming Required: Realize these benefits without migration, refactoring, or standardizing on one CI engine

This is just the beginning. Later this year, CloudBees will deliver deep integration capabilities for Jenkins, ensuring consistent governance and traceability across one of the most widely used CI tools in the enterprise.

Whether teams use GHA, Tekton, Jenkins, or all three, CloudBees brings everything together into a unified, enterprise-ready DevOps solution.

Part of the CloudBees Unify Vision

The GitHub Actions integration represents a key pillar of CloudBees Unify, our newly announced, extensible enterprise DevOps solution that consolidates software delivery across your entire toolchain without forced migrations or “rip and replace” strategies. 

For engineering leaders, this means bringing GHA workflows into the same enterprise solution you already trust without disrupting developer velocity or tool choice. CloudBees Unify creates an end-to-end system of record that automatically maps every change, action, and artifact across heterogeneous environments. 

Why This Matters Now

Enterprises are being asked to deliver software faster, with better quality, amid increasing risk and regulation. The tools that once made teams productive in isolation now must work together under a common framework.

As Anuj Kapur, CEO of CloudBees, notes: “With our new Unify solution, we’re giving organizations the power to modernize without disruption, bring their DevOps ecosystem together, and confidently prepare for what’s next.”
