Overview

What is Harness?

Harness Open Source (formerly Gitness) is an open source platform that combines Git code hosting and continuous delivery (CI/CD) within a single product. It offers repository, branch, pull request, and code review management, similar to GitHub or GitLab, while integrating a pipeline engine.

Pipelines are described declaratively in YAML, versioned with the code, and each build or test step runs in an isolated container. This approach ensures reproducible builds and strong isolation between executions. Harness supports GitOps workflows and deployment automation.

Designed for sovereign development teams, the platform installs entirely on your infrastructure: your source code, secrets, and artifacts never leave your servers. It integrates with the rest of your chain (Docker registries, external repositories, webhooks, APIs) and avoids dependency on a development SaaS hosted abroad.

Host Harness at DINAO

No managed container for Harness: this application is installed on a VPS hosted in France (2 vCPU / 4 Go / 20 Go minimum).

Harness needs a level of access to the machine that the managed container, shared between several customers, does not give. Two VPS hosted in France: DINAO installs and manages it for you, or you administer it yourself.

Technical reason: mounting the Docker socket (full control of the host).

Option 2 The simplest

Frequently asked questions

You might be wondering…

About Harness 6 questions

Can Harness replace GitHub + Jenkins?

Yes. The open source version of Harness (Gitness) combines Git hosting, pull requests, and container-based CI/CD pipelines in a single self-hosted platform — without relying on an external service.

Does my source code remain private?

Yes. Your repositories, pipelines, and secrets are stored on your DINAO instance in France. Your intellectual property does not transit through any third-party service.

Where is the data hosted?

On DINAO's infrastructure in France, in one of the available data centers. Your code and artifacts do not leave the territory.

Are technical skills required?

The web interface (repositories, PRs, pipelines) is familiar to dev teams. The VPS is not managed by default; you install and maintain the application on your Docker VPS. Paid management options can be added to the order.

Can I change my plan or export my data?

Yes. You can upgrade or downgrade at any time, and your Git repositories remain exportable via standard clone — no vendor lock-in.

Is this application tested before it is offered?

This application has not yet passed our automatic deployment test. It can still be installed, but we invite you to contact us before ordering: we will then test it as a priority. The deployment template used was last updated on 3 July 2026. Each new version released by the publisher triggers this test again: the date above therefore follows the version actually offered.

In which data centre is my service hosted?

In France, in DINAO's private racks within two third-party data centres: Free Pro in Marseille (MAR02) and Euclyde DC1 in Sophia-Antipolis. The operator provides the building, power, cooling and physical security; DINAO operates everything inside its racks, entirely and independently.
