Visit Rundeck

Rundeck is an open source orchestration tool from PagerDuty, released under the Apache Software License v2.0. It runs existing automation, schedules jobs, and provides self-service operations workflows, helping teams standardize operational tasks across development and production environments such as provisioning, security, software updates, deployment, and configuration changes.

Core capabilities include job scheduling, workflow execution spanning scripts, tools, APIs, and system commands, and an activity log for auditing command and job execution history with details such as run time, log output, and duration. Integrations are delivered through out-of-the-box and community plugins, including Ansible, Jenkins, Kubernetes, Chef, Puppet, Hashicorp Vault, Azure Storage, GCP, and Jira, with support for building custom plugins. The commercial version adds high-availability deployment, Enterprise Runners for dispatching automation to remote environments, technical support, and advanced orchestration features and plugins.

Rundeck is aimed at DevOps and platform engineering teams seeking self-service operations. The open source edition is available as a free download, while a commercial edition is offered with a trial option; specific packaging details such as seat or usage-based pricing are not stated.
