The report also found 72.8% run their primary CI/CD system on premises or self-managed cloud infrastructure, with 30.5% using an on-premises installation — the highest share in five years — and 28% interacting with CI/CD tools through MCP or agent skills versus 10% using a CI/CD product's built-in assistant. JetBrains said most AI use happens around the pipeline, for code review, writing or fixing tests, and diagnosing build failures.", "body_md": "## TeamCity\n\nPowerful CI/CD for DevOps-centric teams\n\n[News](https://blog.jetbrains.com/teamcity/category/news/)\n\n# New Report: The State of CI/CD in 2026\n\nCI/CD remains one of the foundations of modern software development. According to the JetBrains Developer Ecosystem Survey 2026, 83.4% of respondents who use DevOps practices run CI/CD pipelines.\n\nThe new report looks at how teams are running those pipelines, which tools they use, and where AI fits into their workflows. It brings together findings from four JetBrains studies, including the State of CI/CD Tools Survey 2026.\n\nHere are some of the numbers that stood out:\n\n- **72.8%** run their primary CI/CD system on premises or on self-managed cloud infrastructure.\n- **30.5%** use an on-premises installation, the highest share recorded in five years.\n- **48.8%** of organizations use AI for at least one CI/CD task.\n- Only **8%** run AI-powered steps directly inside a build or test.\n- **28%** interact with their CI/CD tools through MCP or agent skills, compared with 10% who use an assistant built into the CI/CD product.\n\nMost AI use currently happens around the pipeline. Teams use it to review code, write or fix tests, and diagnose build failures.\n\nAt the same time, self-hosting remains an important part of the CI/CD landscape, especially for organizations that need more control over their infrastructure, data, security, or costs.\n\nThe report also explores the most widely used CI/CD tools, why organizations maintain several platforms, what makes teams consider switching, and the main barriers to wider AI adoption.
