MinA is kindof container and repo manager

The visual representation of your docker containers can be very useful to manage them, so you dont have problems with some commands that are not working as expected or because it wasnt clear enough for me what I should do next in this case. You need good knowledge about linux command line before using mina! Its easy-to use but if youre coming from windows world its hard at first time when things get confusing since we know how everything works there :) There's no way yet (as far i understand)…

Pros
  • Easy interface
  • Very fast deployment times compared against traditional ways used today ekspecially comparing local dev environments where building takes ages due low hardware resources.
  • Great documentation available online
  • Allows running any kind os application inside container
Cons
  • Some problems

Best in class tool for deployment automation

The best thing I like about Mina is the simplicity of the interface. It's a very easy to use and intuitive. Mina is well documented, and the community is very helpful. The only drawback is that Mina is not free. I would definitely recommend Mina to other developers who want to automate their deployments. The biggest problem that I can see is the pricing. With Mina you have to pay a monthly subscription to automate deployments. There is no way to pay per hour and have the price reduced. I can…

Pros
  • The simplicity of the interface and the way that Mina automate deployments
Cons
  • There is no way to pay per hour and have the price reduced

Great tool which helps keeping automation alive

I've been using Minas for almost 2 years now, so far it's great! It has helped me to automate my deployments of different Java applications (including Tomcat). The configuration options are really flexible, you can even create your own scripts or use external tools with them if necessary; also there're several plugins that add more functionalities like Git integration etc... nothing bad yet!! For example we had some issues while trying to run our JUnit tests in Jenkins - but this was solved…

Pros
  • Flexibility
  • Ease ouse
  • Open source project = community driven development :)
Cons
  • Not bad
