CloudBees announced that CloudBees Core now supports secure LDAP in Cloud Identity.

The partnership will allow organizations to centralize user management policies by using the same Google Cloud Identity or G Suite credentials to connect to CloudBees Core. As a launch partner for secure LDAP, this collaboration further strengthens the DevOps relationship between CloudBees and Google.

Cloud Identity is a service that allows customers to manage users, devices and applications from a central location with the same level of Google-grade security and agility. In an effort to simplify user management under a single system in the Cloud, the partnership allows Google customers to seamlessly connect their LDAP directories to CloudBees Core using secure LDAP. Users will have the ability to use the same Cloud Identity credentials for CloudBees Core authentication and authorization.

Jason Mero, VP of BD and Technical Alliances at CloudBees, said: “This collaboration will enable us to provide an integrated way for enterprise customers to manage their users, as well as authenticating and authorizing access to CloudBees Core.”

CloudBees Core enables unified governance of continuous delivery operations and processes. Organizations gain optimal efficiency with the flexibility to run software pipelines in a self-managed way, across cloud and on-premise environments. With the increasing demand for easier and more agile ways of accessing services, secure LDAP addresses the need for unified user management through a central system.
