Seriously, a well set up gutlab is pretty much undownable. And even if you do, what really is the impact? If the pipelines don't run you cannot integrate, sure if the core service breaks down you will probably resolve to exchanging patches the old school way. But the good part is, in order to deploy those decentrally sourced changes you still will go through centralized CI and gain its quality assurances by doing so. Where's the drawback?
- Silhouette 4y agoUnfortunately a hosted GitLab is downable when GitLab itself goes down. Same for all the other hosted source control and CI systems. Given that many companies now tie their entire deployment process into their source control and CI/CD systems that means you really are reduced to exchanging patch files. For any non-trivial change in a large system that quickly becomes impractical and so development slows to a crawl or everyone literally gives up and goes to the pub.
