Abstract: Salesforce Copado has emerged as a leading DevOps platform for managing Salesforce deployments across hybrid Unix/Linux environments. This review explores the integration of Copado with Jenkins CI/CD pipelines and GitHub automation to create a comprehensive, end-to-end deployment orchestration framework. Copado provides structured deployment pipelines, version control, and environment management, while Jenkins automates builds, testing, and release workflows. GitHub enables collaborative development, branching strategies, and source control management. The article examines architectural integration, workflow automation, error handling, rollback strategies, compliance, and audit readiness. Industry case studies in finance, healthcare, retail, and government illustrate practical applications and benefits. Challenges such as hybrid environment complexity, scalability, performance bottlenecks, security, and organizational adoption are discussed. Future research directions include AI-driven orchestration, cloud-native CI/CD, containerized workflows, self-healing pipelines, and automated compliance validation. The review emphasizes that integrating Copado, Jenkins, and GitHub empowers enterprises to streamline Salesforce release management, enhance operational efficiency, ensure compliance, and maintain reliable deployments across distributed hybrid environments
