Akuity has recently released two new tools built to improve developers' experience working with Kubernetes. Last month, we released KubeVision, and this month, we've released Kargo 1.0.

Kubernetes developers and enthusiasts rejoice! We're now offering KubeVision and Kargo in our new free trial called the Pro Plus Free Trial. This new free trial provides users access to Kargo and KubeVision for 30 days.

Try out our new free trial today; no credit card needed!

Here's a rundown of what Kargo and KubeVision can offer you.

Kargo

Kargo provides stage-to-stage promotion using GitOps principles without bespoke automation or relying on CI pipelines. Kargo works seamlessly with Argo CD on the Akuity Platform. With the free trial, you have access to 1 instance, 3 Kargo Agents, and 20 Stages. So, why use Kargo?

Kargo provides key benefits such as:

  • Flexible Promotion Pipeline

  • Environment and Changes Visibility

  • An Intuitive User Experience

  • Safer Deployments with User Guardrails

You can read more about Kargo here or watch our webinar exploring Kargo hosted by Jesse Suen of Akuity, Kelsey Hightower, former distinguished engineer at Google, along with current Kargo users: Ed Boykin from CoreCard, Jose Maldonado from Cisco, and Brad Wannow from Bloom Credit.

KubeVision

Improve Kubernetes insight and visibility with our new feature: KubeVision. This feature enhances the visibility capabilities of the Akuity Platform. KubeVision offers a collection of use-case-specific dashboards that empower platform administrators and engineers to monitor and troubleshoot Kubernetes clusters across the entire organization.

The free trial enables access to KubeVision's beneficial dashboards such as:

  • Explorer Dashboard: Allows users to browse through the resources of all clusters connected to the Akuity Platform.

  • Containers Dashboard: Provides a centralized view of all the containers within the desired cluster. Lists each container as well as information such as the associated cluster, container name, pod details, and the current status.

  • Image Dashboard: Gives a general overview of the container images used within the Kubernetes environment. Displays information such as the image name, the number of containers using each image, the image tag, and the image digest.

  • Infrastructure Dashboard: A dynamic visual representation of the current state of your Kubernetes clusters. Enables monitoring and managing pod utilization, cluster health, and resource allocation.
