the Argo project
What is Argo?
Kubernetes tooling to deploy applications,
manage clusters, run workflows, and do GitOps right.
The Argo Project is a suite of open source tools for deploying and running applications and workloads on Kubernetes. It extends the Kubernetes APIs and unlocks new and powerful capabilities in application deployment, container orchestration, event automation, progressive delivery, and more.
The project was created by Akuity co-founders and is a graduated Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) project.
