Summary

Creating a Jenkins server for managing deploy processes provides consistency, incorporates tests, and protects the production server. To achieve this control, using a managed service like GitHub's GitLab can be opaque and outside one's control. Instead, a dedicated Jenkins server offers total access and control over the deploy chain. This setup allows users to create jobs that handle deploy processes for projects, triggered by commits to their GitHub repositories, ensuring integration checks happen every time.
