CloudBees CI Brings Even More UPTIME for Your Build Services

Don’t let downtime and long MTTR bring you...down. 

With high availability now supporting rolling upgrades, rolling restarts, and hibernation - you’ll keep those CI services up - even during upgrades, and put them to sleep (saving costs when not in use) with hibernation.

Services stay up when needed, you save money when not.
