Bamboo vs GoCD

Bamboo has no write-up on Specifiction yet; its figures are above.

GoCD is an open-source server for continuous delivery and release automation. Its Value Stream Map follows changes from commit to deployment, showing upstream causes and downstream effects while allowing users to navigate jobs. Workflow models can coordinate dependencies and parallel execution, and traceability tools compare files and commit messages across builds. GoCD can pass a once-built binary through pipeline stages, run cross-platform tests in parallel, and report the changeset and platform where a test failure began. It supports delivery workflows for Kubernetes, Docker, AWS, and other cloud environments; Kubernetes use can include dynamically scaled agents. Plugins connect external tools, with catalog options for Docker Registry, S3 artifacts, Kubernetes agents, and secrets managers. The project is self-hosted, free under the Apache License, Version 2.0, and offers packages for Windows, macOS, Debian, RPM, and ZIP, plus Docker and Kubernetes/Helm options. New installations do not require authentication. GoCD 26.1.0 requires Java 21 as its minimum supported version.
