We are evaluating Bamboo to integrate with our current development and release process, but we have a few questions. In order to meet compliance, we need to have a defined workflow, with permissions to certain steps. Our current release management software has the following workflow: * Developer initiates build and releases code to QA environment * Security team runs a scan on code and approves for release to prod. * Engineer releases code to Staging Server * Engineer releases code to Prod. Is there a way in Bamboo to assign certain stages to certain people? Is there a way to prevent future steps from happening unless the previous steps were successful or (in the case of #2) approved?

We are evaluating Bamboo to integrate with our current development and release process, but we have a few questions.

In order to meet compliance, we need to have a defined workflow, with permissions to certain steps. Our current release management software has the following workflow:

Developer initiates build and releases code to QA environment
Security team runs a scan on code and approves for release to prod.
Engineer releases code to Staging Server
Engineer releases code to Prod.

Is there a way in Bamboo to assign certain stages to certain people? Is there a way to prevent future steps from happening unless the previous steps were successful or (in the case of #2) approved?

Also, I think it would be good idea if you would check the following blog post about upcoming Bamboo 5 -> http://blogs.atlassian.com/2013/05/version-management-jira-bamboo/ - I think that you're actually wanting features that will be released with the version 5.0. Maybe you should even evaluate Bamboo 5 demo to check the deployment support.

Maybe it's not worth to integrate with Bamboo using Stages for your workflow, but rather wait for Bamboo 5 and utilize the power of "Environments" and "Deployments"? (see the linked blog post for what am I talking about).

Yes, you can control who initiates a build by assigning users or groups to the BUILD permission. And there are Build Dependency Blocking strategies that you can setup to prevent a build from running.

However, you may need to program your own set of checks to prevent unapproved builds. One way would be a task that checks for the approval and fails the build if its not approved.
