AUSTIN, Texas — The CDEvents project proposes a standard way to communicate between CI/CD tools through an event-driven architecture, which could potentially reduce integration toil and improve compliance automation for DevOps platform teams.
The project, rolled out last month, was the focus of sessions and discussions among attendees at cdCon this week. It’s still in its raw early stages, but if it succeeds, CDEvents could do for DevOps pipelines what OpenTelemetry has done for distributed tracing: make it easy for users to swap specific tools in and out because they all share data in a compatible way.
