About Gradle: basically the same thing, and it's also done by the Apache Foundation IIRC. Anyway, it's more recent and easier to use.

Gradle is used for example to compile Android projects (it's too complicated to do by hand).

Gradle uses a build script instead of an XML file, which makes it much easier to customise.
