Dokploy vs Tekton Pipelines
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Dokploy and Tekton Pipelines — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Dokploy vs Tekton Pipelines: at a glance
What is Dokploy?
A self-hosted PaaS spending its releases on secrets, injection fixes and plan limits.
Dokploy cuts patch releases every one to two weeks, and the recent stream is dominated by hardening rather than features. v0.29.12 added AES-256-GCM encryption for environment variables at rest and made backups carry the full keyring; v0.29.13 closed an OS command injection in git clone across all providers. The newest tag says outright that it is bug fixes only. Alongside that, plan limits landed in v0.29.10.
What is Tekton Pipelines?
Tekton names a new LTS while patching five older lines in the same fortnight
Tekton Pipeline maintains an unusually wide set of branches — v1.3, v1.6, v1.9, v1.12, v1.14 and now v1.15 all received releases recently, several cut within minutes of each other. v1.15.0 arrives as an LTS with configurable backoffs, following v1.14.0 which added pipelines-in-pipelines by reference along with leaner controllers and sturdier reconcilers. Every release carries a Rekor attestation UUID.

Dokploy
6.3INFRA · APIS
A self-hosted PaaS spending its releases on secrets, injection fixes and plan limits.
◆ Current state
Dokploy cuts patch releases every one to two weeks, and the recent stream is dominated by hardening rather than features. v0.29.12 added AES-256-GCM encryption for environment variables at rest and made backups carry the full keyring; v0.29.13 closed an OS command injection in git clone across all providers. The newest tag says outright that it is bug fixes only. Alongside that, plan limits landed in v0.29.10.
◆ Where it's heading
The direction is a self-hosted platform trying to earn production trust: encrypted secrets, injection fixes, a pinned install script tied to each release, and Postgres query rewrites to stop hitting the 100-argument limit on rollbacks, schedules and backups. Plan limits point the other way — toward a commercial tier layered on the open-source core. Both arcs suggest the project is past feature-chasing and into making the platform defensible.
◆ Prediction
Expect the hardening thread to continue into the rest of the 0.29 line, with the plan-limits work being the seed of a paid tier that gets more definition before a 0.30 release.
Tekton Pipelines
6.3INFRA · APIS
Tekton names a new LTS while patching five older lines in the same fortnight
◆ Current state
Tekton Pipeline maintains an unusually wide set of branches — v1.3, v1.6, v1.9, v1.12, v1.14 and now v1.15 all received releases recently, several cut within minutes of each other. v1.15.0 arrives as an LTS with configurable backoffs, following v1.14.0 which added pipelines-in-pipelines by reference along with leaner controllers and sturdier reconcilers. Every release carries a Rekor attestation UUID.
◆ Where it's heading
Two things are consistent here: composability is the feature direction, and supply-chain provenance is non-negotiable — attestation is part of every release entry, including patches on years-old branches. The LTS designation matters more than the version number for platform teams, since it determines what they can standardise on without re-qualifying every quarter.
◆ Prediction
Expect patch releases to concentrate on v1.15 and the previous LTS lines, with older branches like v1.3 and v1.6 receiving fixes only until their support windows close.
