Announcement
Kargo: Kubernetes Application Lifecycle Orchestration
Kargo is an open-source project for orchestrating the application delivery lifecycle on Kubernetes, automating promotions across environments and providing visibility into releases.
Project Introduction
Summary
Kargo is a Kubernetes-native tool designed to orchestrate the entire application delivery lifecycle, from development testing through production deployment. It provides a declarative way to define delivery pipelines, manage stages, control promotions, and gain insights into application versions across environments.
Problem Solved
Managing complex application delivery pipelines across multiple Kubernetes clusters and environments with manual steps, custom scripts, and disparate tools is error-prone and inefficient. Kargo provides a standardized, automated approach.
Core Features
Stage Management
Define and manage different stages in your application delivery pipeline (e.g., Dev, Staging, Production) within Kubernetes.
Automated Promotions & Gates
Automate or manually control the promotion of application versions between defined stages based on configurable policies and gates.
CI/CD Integration
Integrates with Git repositories and various CI/CD tools to track application versions and trigger lifecycle events.
Tech Stack
使用场景
Kargo is suitable for various scenarios involving the controlled and automated movement of applications through different stages in a Kubernetes environment.
场景一：自动化生产环境晋升 (Promotion)
Details
Automatically promote a tested and validated application version from a staging environment to production after successful CI/CD checks and potential manual approvals.
User Value
Reduces manual deployment risks and accelerates reliable delivery to production.
场景二：多应用/微服务发布管理
Details
Manage separate delivery pipelines for multiple microservices or applications within a single Kubernetes cluster or across a fleet of clusters.
User Value
Provides a centralized and consistent way to handle the release cycles of many independent services.
场景三：强制执行发布门禁 (Gates)
Details
Implement quality gates (e.g., integration test results, security scans, manual approvals) that must pass before an application can proceed to the next stage.
User Value
Ensures that only sufficiently tested and approved versions reach sensitive environments.
