Abstract: Hybrid IT environments, combining legacy Unix systems with Salesforce cloud platforms, present unique challenges for modern software delivery. Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) pipelines are critical for accelerating deployments, ensuring operational reliability, and maintaining compliance across these heterogeneous systems. This review explores the integration of Jenkins, Git, and Copado to streamline hybrid CI/CD workflows. It examines pipeline design, orchestration strategies, automation, testing, monitoring, and feedback mechanisms, highlighting their impact on deployment efficiency and operational continuity. The article also addresses security, compliance, and risk mitigation considerations, drawing insights from real-world implementations in financial, healthcare, and other regulated industries. Furthermore, emerging trends such as AI-driven automation, cloud-native DevOps, and advanced pipeline optimization are analyzed for their potential to enhance hybrid CI/CD performance. By bridging legacy and cloud systems, this review provides a comprehensive framework for enterprises seeking to accelerate software delivery, maintain regulatory adherence, and drive continuous improvement in complex hybrid IT landscapes.
