Gradle is a build tool for continuous integration and continuous delivery pipelines. It builds upon the concepts of Apache Ant and Apache Maven, and introduces a Groovy-based domain-specific language instead of the XML form used by Apache Maven. It provides solutions for build caching, build scanning, build debugging, build performance management, and more. Some of the client companies include LinkedIn, Google, Netflix, Oracle, Gap, Paypal, eBay, AT&T, Palantir, and SpringIO.
