How It Works

• It follows the GitOps pattern of using Git repositories as the source of truth for defining the desired application state
• It is implemented as a Kubernetes controller, which continuously monitors running applications and compares the current, live state against the desired target state

Argo CD has support for multiple config management/templating tools:

• Kustomize
• Helm
• Ksonnet
• Jsonnet
• Plain YAML/JSON manifests
• Custom config management tool

Application deployments can track updates to:

• Branches
• Tags
• Git commit SHA
