Why You Should Choose Argo CD for GitOps

Many organizations that have already implemented a DevOps culture are looking to further accelerate their development process by adopting GitOps practices in their environments. There is a lot to take into consideration when planning out your GitOps strategy, and you can read more about it at this Codefresh learning center about adopting GitOps.

Kubernetes Master Class: GitOps, Rancher and ArgoCD with Codefresh

Join Robert Sirchia and Dan Garfield for this session. Configuration drift is a common problem software developers face. Picture this: two environments are supposed to be similar but are not. Nobody knows exactly what is deployed in that environment/server/cluster, so people are afraid to touch it. It’s declared “off-limits” because nobody can reconstruct it if it breaks down. People do hot-fixes or ad-hoc changes without recording them, and then those developers change teams or companies.

Codefresh GitOps CD Launch Webinar

Introducing a Hosted GitOps Platform Automate GitOps best practices and deliver software faster Introducing a fully-hosted solution for DevOps teams seeking to quickly and easily achieve frictionless, GitOps-based continuous software delivery in the cloud.

The New Hosted Gitops Platform Experience from Codefresh

Last month we announced the 3 major features we are adding to the Codefresh platform. Dashboards for DORA metrics, support for any external Continuous Integration system and a hosted GitOps service. The hosted GitOps experience (powered by Argo CD) is now available to all new Codefresh accounts (even free ones) so that simply by signing up you can start deploying applications right away to your Kubernetes cluster without having to maintain your own Argo CD installation.

Drive Tanzu Mission Control Cluster Configuration and Add-ons with Flux CD

VMware Tanzu Mission Control users can now drive clusters via GitOps. This new feature of Tanzu Mission Control is built on Flux CD and enables users to attach a git repository to a cluster and sync YAML artifacts (using Kustomize) from the repository to the cluster. This feature provides a method for managing cluster configurations with Tanzu Mission Control via continuous delivery from a git repository.

Cribl and GitOps: Go From Development to Production

Git integration has always been at the foundation of Stream. In the fall 2021 release of Cribl Stream (both on-prem software and Cloud), our Enterprise users have a received set of APIs to separate the development and deployment of Stream. Stream GitOps connects with your favorite git based versioning platforms and leverages their PR, approve/reject, and CI/CD workflows to push production-ready changes from a development branch into a main branch or release.

Standardizing your GitOps Definition - Ravi Lachhman, Shipa (Meetup for Argo)

Believe it or not, the GitOps paradigm is now going on year five since the defining piece from WeaveWorks. So, at least in theory, leveraging a declarative approach that pairs Kubernetes with GitOps pillars is not novel at this point. But the trickier question right now – and one open to no shortage of interpretation – is what you are sending to a GitOps Engine. The multiple paths of creating Kubernetes manifests and packaging (like Helm, Kustomize, JSonnett, etc) are largely leaving us to our own devices for abstraction. Is an app an app if there is no longer a templating engine?

GitOps your WordPress with ArgoCD, Crossplane, and Shipa

WordPress is a popular platform for editing and publishing content for the web. This tutorial will walk you through how to build out a WordPress deployment using Kubernetes, ArgoCD, Crossplane, and Shipa. WordPress consists of two major components: the WordPress PHP server and a database to store user information, posts, and site data. We will define these two components and store them in a Git repository.
