About GitHub Enterprise
What is GitHub Enterprise?
GitHub Enterprise is an enterprise-ready software development platform designed for the complex workflows of modern development. It offers all the features and functionality of the cloud-based GitHub.com platform but with additional security, administrative, and customization options.
There are two choices for deployment: GitHub Enterprise Server or GitHub Enterprise Cloud. With GitHub Enterprise Server, organizations can install the platform on their own servers, whereas GitHub Enterprise Cloud is hosted in the cloud on GitHub.com.
As a platform solution, GitHub Enterprise also includes additional management and customization options for administrators. These options include custom workflows, automating tasks with webhooks and integrations, and custom policies for repository use.

There are several reasons why organizations should consider using GitHub Enterprise for their development process:
- Enhanced security and compliance: GitHub Enterprise offers security and compliance features that are important for organizations with strict data privacy regulations or compliance requirements. These features include enhanced authentication and access controls, audit logs, SOC, ISO, FedRAMP, and LiSaaS.

- Customizable workflows and automation tools: GitHub Enterprise offers a range of customization options that allow organizations to create custom workflows, automate tasks, and develop bespoke policies for repository use. This helps businesses streamline their development processes.
- Core collaboration features: GitHub Enterprise offers a range of collaboration features, such as pull requests, code review tools, and project management capabilities that make it easier for teams to work together on projects.
- Scalability: GitHub Enterprise is designed to scale with organizations’ needs, whether teams are small or large.
