Summary

Harness Platform streamlines Continuous Delivery by simplifying pipeline configurations, offering a quicker and less manual deployment process compared to Tekton's more complex approach. While Tekton is evolving to power systems like OpenShift and Jenkins X Pipelines, it requires significant setup, including creating Tekton Tasks and Pipelines, and managing Custom Resource Definitions. Harness, on the other hand, provides a user-friendly interface that abstracts these complexities, making it easier to deploy applications like Nginx to Kubernetes clusters such as Amazon EKS. The article emphasizes how Harness's abstraction model facilitates rapid deployment success and contrasts this with the more engineering-heavy demands of tools like Tekton, Spinnaker, and Jenkins.
