There are more ways to set up a pipeline than there are ways to shuffle a deck of cards.

Everybody seems to like to tie back into online services. People like github workflows, and using NPMs and external DNS and docker Deps and JFrog. By the time you chain all those SLAs together you've got a bucket of risk the size of a small bus.

I try to push them as much as possible to use straight up bash scripts, and then call those with automation.

If it were solely up to me, I'd host my own repositories, but at some point, risk and safety end up losing out to some extent to features and feasibility.
