Maximum number of jenkins jobs/builds

[pd]

Hi,

I have read few responses on the web before posting this question. I am trying to find the 'pristine' documentation that could answer the following 2 questions:

1. What is the maximum number of jobs/builds that can be configured in jenkins before some performance threshold is reached?

2. What is the maximum number of jobs that can be run in jenkins concurrently?

I understand factors such as the underlying hardware (memory, CPU, etc) also govern these guidelines, so it would be helpful if someone could point me to the most accurate jenkins documentation that provides all such guidelines.

Thanks!

I'm afraid your questions are broad enough that they can't reasonably be answered by documentation.

There are Jenkins servers which run hundreds of slave agents and hundreds of jobs concurrently.  A google search for "scaling Jenkins" returned the following presentations which you could review as good sources of information:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8GAAL7T_ozM - Kohsuke Kawaguchi talk on scaling Jenkins

http://di388e0fcqllf.cloudfront.net/whitepapers/7WaysToOptimizeJenkins.pdf - Kohsuke Kawaguchi on some good practices for Jenkins at scale

http://www.slideshare.net/anickelsen/scaling-your-jenkins-ci-pipeline - Scaling Jenkins pipeline by Anders Nickelsen

http://narkisr.github.io/jenkins-scaling/#title - web presentation on scaling

I believe there were also very useful presentations on scaling Jenkins at previous Jenkins User Conference sessions.

Thanks,

Mark Waite
