Building a Portable Kubernetes Deployment Pipeline with Argo Workflows and Events

Explore the key learnings from building a Kubernetes-based platform driven by Argo workflows and events in this 27-minute conference talk. Discover how Jetstack and Improbable leveraged Argo and Kubernetes to create a portable, multi-cloud deployment pipeline. Learn about the platform's strong data aggregation capabilities and its ability to deploy on any estate, including air-gapped facilities. Gain insights into the rationale behind rejecting typical CI/CD models in favor of a custom solution, techniques for isolating workflows in multi-tenanted environments, and running Terraform in Argo. Delve into best practices for building cloud-native platforms across multi-cloud environments, managing highly scalable cluster configurations with ephemeral environments, and achieving platform portability while remaining infrastructure agnostic.
