Abstract: Continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines are essential for accelerating Salesforce development and ensuring reliable, automated releases across hybrid Unix and cloud environments. This review examines strategies for implementing end-to-end CI/CD pipelines using Copado and Jenkins, highlighting their integration with legacy Unix systems such as Solaris, AIX, and Linux. The discussion emphasizes pipeline design, workflow orchestration, automated testing, monitoring, and predictive analytics to optimize both infrastructure and Salesforce CRM operations. Security, compliance, and auditability are addressed to ensure regulatory adherence and operational integrity. Case studies demonstrate improvements in deployment speed, system reliability, and customer engagement. Emerging trends, including AI-assisted DevOps, cloud-native pipelines, and predictive maintenance, provide a roadmap for future automation and optimization in hybrid enterprise environments.
