What do tools like Jenkins, Octopus Deploy, and Azure DevOps provide in terms of application and infrastructure automation?

Jenkins, Octopus Deploy, and Azure DevOps are prominent platforms that automate the software delivery lifecycle by enabling continuous integration (automating the build and testing of code changes) and continuous deployment (automating the release of applications to various environments), streamlining the development and operational processes.

A Cloud Application Security Broker (CASB) is used for security policy enforcement for cloud services, unrelated to CI/CD automation.

Compile-time instrumentation is a technique for adding code to an application during compilation for monitoring or debugging, not the primary function of these CI/CD tools.

Container orchestration tools like Kubernetes manage containerized applications, which is distinct from the CI/CD pipeline automation provided by Jenkins, Octopus Deploy, or Azure DevOps, though these CI/CD tools can *integrate* with container orchestration.
