Explore close collaboration with Argo
Collaborate closer with Argo
Keptn provides unique obervability and automation capabilities to GitOps environments:
- Provide tracing for GitOps deployments without touching any deployment
- Provide DORA metrics out of the box (including Grafana dashboards)
- Automatically validate SLIs/SLOs as part of deployments
- Add automation steps declaratively to pre- and post deployment steps for individual services and entire applications.
- Support multi-stage deployments.
This is functionality which is currently not available at this level in Argo. However, these capabilities are key for enterprise-level production usage. The Keptn project has been heavily focussed on supporting GitOps deployments with Argo (while Keptn also works for plain kubectl-type deployments)
The project team wants to explore closer collaboration with Argo - either by joint innovation or potentially making Keptn a dedicated "observability" subproject of Argo.
