Software Factory
</a>
</h3>
<p>
Software Factory is a distribution that integrates all the
components as CentOS packages with an installer/operator named
sfconfig to manage service configuration, backup, recovery and
upgrades. The main Zuul advantages for their users are
customizable deployments and simplicity of use. The RDO project
has been using Software Factory successfully for about three
years now. The goal is to keep the same user experience from
upstream to downstream and to allow them to share
configurations, jobs, pipelines and easily run third party CI
jobs. With the addition of GitHub support to Zuul, Software
Factory can now be used without Gerrit and people are looking
into running their own gating CI/CD for GitHub organizations
with SF to use the log processing features.

OpenStack Foundation
</a>
</h3>
<p>
OpenStack ended up in a situation where it wanted to keep gating
changes to OpenStack but have the ability to merge more than 24
changes a day. Running tests more quickly, or running fewer
tests were either not possible or less than ideal options.
Instead the infrastructure team set out to build a system (Zuul)
which could parallelize the serial testing of OpenStack.
Initially, Zuul was the coordinator for Jenkins and the two
systems worked together, and around April 2016, Jenkins was
replaced with an Ansible <https://www.ansible.com/>-based
execution system to improve performance and reliability. The
success of this Ansible-based system highly influenced the
decision to do the major Zuul v3 rewrite which also uses Ansible
to execute jobs.

<a href="https://superuser.openstack.org/articles/zuul-case-study-packet-host/">
Packet Host
</a>
</h3>
<p>
Packet Host built a community cloud to support OpenStack with
100 concurrent VM instances each with 8 GB RAM, eight vCPUs and
80 GB storage running on 11 bare metal servers. Working with the
OpenStack Infra team has really opened my eyes up to the
capabilities of Zuul and the frameworks theyve put together,
says John Studarus, who helped Packet Host put it together.
