Codeship founder here: Happy to answer any questions, especially if you are a Codeship user/customer :)

Congrats! I'm sure you folks are celebrating :)

My question: Why the partnership and keeping the 2 brands? Owning a bigger chunk of the market? Higher and lower end? I know it's a private company. But some 2000-mile high info would be interesting to understand if the incentives have shifted.

Thanks, Codeship user

Thank you :) Did you have a chance to watch the video on our blog? That addresses some of your questions.

Although we started as a cloud/SaaS platform, we always wanted to serve the whole market. Partnering with CloudBees allows us to do that and together, we can help pretty much any developer or dev team in the world, on-prem or cloud, technology agnostic, etc.

The Codeship brand will continue because we think a lot of people know it and we want to avoid confusing them. I also think it makes sense to have different brands for the cloud/SaaS piece and the on-prem products.
