    Overview

    Play video

    The Akuity Platform is an Enterprise solution for Argo CD from the creators of Argo open source project. It offers a unique, distributed architecture that increases security and provides exponentially greater scalability- up to tens of thousands of applications can run on a single instance/control plane.

    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.

    Akuity is rooted in Argo, extending its capabilities and using the same familiar user interface. The platform will solve real-life DevOps use cases using battle-tested patterns packaged into a product with the best possible developer experience.

    Features include:

    Hybrid Agent-based Architecture Akuity doesn't need secrets nor even direct access to your Kubernetes clusters. Thanks to an agent-based architecture, the clusters connect to the Argo control plane and not the other way around.

    Built-in Auditing Log, store, and analyze all the important events that took place inside your Argo CD control plane. Increase discoverability of any security liabilities and react instantly.

    Disaster Recovery and High Availability Control plane is configured with high availability out-of-the-box and configurations are backed up frequently. No need to recreate your Argo CD configuration after your cluster goes down.

    Argo CD Upgrades and Security Patches Decide which Argo CD version you want to run and Akuity will ensure that your clusters will be seamlessly updated or downgraded to it. This also includes applying security patches right after their release.

    Traffic reduction Akuity reduces traffic between the Argo control plane and your Kubernetes clusters by at least 80%. This enables you to manage all the edge clusters without worrying about the bandwidth limit, and save money from the start.

    Built-in Autoscaler With a built-in and configured autoscaler, your Argo CD will be automatically tuned to accommodate the ever changing size of managed infrastructure with the guarantee of high performance.

    Change Promotion Orchestration Forget about pipelines and workflows. Model the delivery of application changes in a more granular, environment-specific way that eschews the simple notion of a "pipe," wherein something always enters one end and emerges from the other.

    Basic Settings Management Manage the basic Argo CD settings from Akuity dashboard in a declarative way - customize your Argo CD in a flash.

    Argo CD Notifications Configure your Argo CD notifications using Akuity's intuitive user interface.

    Deployment Metrics and History Store and analyze your deployment metrics inside the Akuity. Troubleshoot failed deployments and gather metrics regarding every single deployment.

    Argo CD Extensions Catalog Enable such crucial Argo CD extensions as Argo Rollouts UI and Argo Metrics with one click.

    More than UI - Akuity API / CLI Explore more ways of automating and integrating Akuity with your tools and apps by using Akuity API and CLI.

    Highlights

    • Increased Security: The Akuity Platform has an agent-based architecture, allowing the cluster to connect to the Argo control plane (not the other way around). Secrets stay safe inside the Kubernetes clusters.
    • Highly scalable: Open-source ArgoCD will break, it's a matter of when, not if. Akuity's unique distributed architecture installs an agent into each cluster, allowing tens of thousands of applications to seamlessly and reliably run on a single instance/control plane.
    • Continuous Promotions: As the creators of the Kargo open-source project, we've created a new category focused on increasing developer productivity and experience, while lessening the operational overhead of growing engineering teams on DevOps and Platform teams. Our Promotion tool standardizes the promotion process between environments/stages, includes automation, and gives developers a UI to monitor statuses and progress.
