Difference between different jenkins pipeline plugin

I am working on to setup regression for one of my project through jenkins. I am new to jenkins and kind of confused with so many available pipeline plugins. To name a few:

  1. Pipeline Plugin
  2. Build Pipeline Plugin
  3. Delivery Pipeline Plugin

They all seem same to me. Can anyone help me decide when to use which plugin?

Thanks.

While the idea is the same, they are very different in the way how you implement a deployment pipeline.

Long story short: use the Pipeline plugin, which is the "new" way and officially supported by the Jenkins team / Cloudbees and used by a huge community (see also the number of questions for ).

This allows you to define your pipeline as code following the Infrastructure as Code paradigm.

You can find the documentation for pipelines at https://jenkins.io/doc/book/pipeline/.
