Argo CD is a GitOps-based continuous delivery tool for Kubernetes, and allows for declarative management of application deployments.
Continuous Delivery is a software development practice in which code changes are automatically built, tested, and deployed to production with minimal human intervention.
Several advantages of using Continuous Delivery in your business:
- Continuous Delivery enables frequent, small releases, leading to faster time to market for new features and bug fixes.
- Collaboration between development and operations teams is promoted, ensuring code is always in a releasable state.
- Automation of many steps in the release process increases efficiency and reduces human error.
- More frequent testing and integration lead to fewer bugs and better overall software quality.
- Faster delivery of new features and bug fixes results in increased customer satisfaction and loyalty.
Using Argo CD has multiple benefits:
- GitOps-based workflow for version control and auditability of deployments
- Declarative configuration for easy and efficient deployments management
- Automated rollouts and rollbacks for faster and more reliable delivery of updates
- Multi-cluster and multi-namespace support for centralized and consistent management of applications across different environments
After building production-grade Argo CD setups in various operations, we have accumulated the knowledge and tools necessary to efficiently deliver high-quality Argo CD setups.
Some of the things we did with Argo CD include:
- Save costs and increased high-availability by turning single-cloud environments into multi-cloud environments using Argo CD on AWS and Azure
- Automated rollbacks and canary deployments using Argo CD to minimize disruption and risk
- Implemented Argo CD for declarative, GitOps-based management of Kubernetes manifests
- Configured Argo CD to integrate with various Git repository providers such as GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket
- Set up continuous delivery pipelines with Argo CD for automated and secure deployments
- Provided training and support to clients on how to use and maintain Argo CD
Some of the things we can help you do with Argo CD include:
- Deploy Argo CD using Helm on Kubernetes
- Configure Argo CD declaratively using configuration tracked in Git
- Set up continuous delivery pipelines with Argo CD for automated and secure deployments
- Configure Argo CD to integrate with various Git repository providers such as GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket
- Implement role-based access control (RBAC) in Argo CD to ensure secure and compliant deployments
- Develop custom resource definitions (CRD) and controllers to extend Argo CD's functionality
- Provide training and support to clients on how to use and maintain Argo CD
- Implement Argo CD's policies and guardrails to enforce compliance and guard against misconfigurations
- Automate rollbacks and canary deployments using Argo CD to minimize disruption and risk
- Develop a centralized, self-service portal for managing and monitoring Argo CD deployments
- Integrate Argo CD with other tools like Prometheus, Grafana, and Slack for monitoring and alerting
- Help manage deployments on multiple cloud providers like AWS, GCP, and Azure using Argo CD
