description	CircleCI cloud CI/CD platform. Use for continuous integration.

CircleCI

CircleCI is a cloud-native CI/CD platform focused on speed and parallelism. In 2025, Dynamic Config and Orbs are the key drivers of efficiency.

When to Use

• Speed: Best-in-class caching, test splitting, and parallelism.
• Complexity: Dynamic Configuration allows pipelines to change structure based on changed files (Monorepo support).
• Compliance: FedRAMP / SOC2 compliance is strong.
