# Application delivery & CI/CD - Ankra Use Cases

Canonical: https://ankra.ai/use-cases/ci-cd-pipelines

Bring testing, builds, security scans, images and deployment into one delivery workflow.

Application delivery & CI/CD

# A green build should lead somewhere.

Bring testing, builds, security scans, images and deployment into one delivery workflow.

[Start with Ankra](https://platform.ankra.app/auth/signup)  [Read the guide](https://docs.ankra.ai/guides/ankra-pipelines)

For developers, release engineers and platform teams

The work to take off your team

## A successful job is only useful when you can follow it into the running application.

Ankra Pipelines runs on your infrastructure and records the work from checkout through publication. Applications connect the resulting image to deployments; your existing GitHub Actions or GitLab CI can also participate through the CLI and GitOps.

With Ankra

### A delivery workflow with the evidence to investigate what happened.

Version the workflow  Test, build and scan  Publish and deploy  Investigate failures

A practical path

## How this works with Ankra.

1. 01

  ### Version the workflow

  Keep pipeline definitions with the application and connect the repository to Ankra.
2. 02

  ### Test, build and scan

  Run checks, build the container and inspect code, configuration and image findings.
3. 03

  ### Publish and deploy

  Publish an immutable image tag and deploy through the application’s configured delivery path.
4. 04

  ### Investigate failures

  Read step logs and findings, or give an agent the run and live cluster context to propose a fix.

The platform behind the workflow

## The pieces, already connected.

[### Pipelines Test, build, scan and publish on your infrastructure, with the run and its findings in one place.](https://ankra.ai/features#pipelines)

[### Continuous delivery Deploy on a successful build, promote between environments, and follow the rollout on the target cluster.](https://ankra.ai/features#delivery)

[### AI where your team works Bring Ankra into code hosting and team conversations to investigate pipelines, review changes and follow agent work.](https://ankra.ai/features#connections)

What comes next?

## Keep building from here.

[Build & ship ### Ship your application Connect a repository and get a path from code to a running application on infrastructure you control.](https://ankra.ai/use-cases/ship-your-app)

[Operate & protect ### Investigate production incidents Give your team and its agents the logs, events and resource state needed to investigate a running application.](https://ankra.ai/use-cases/incident-response)

[Operate & protect ### Self-service with control Give developers and agents useful access while retaining ownership of permissions, configuration and changes.](https://ankra.ai/use-cases/team-governance)
