The presentation discusses the scalability of Argo CD and the importance of separating concerns to minimize blast radius. The speaker also introduces the Sig Scalability project and encourages audience participation.
  • Argo CD is scalable but it's important to separate concerns to minimize blast radius
  • Sig Scalability is a project aimed at improving the performance of Argo CD and the speaker encourages audience participation
  • The speaker demonstrates the scalability of Argo CD by syncing all apps from the internet
  • The speaker also discusses the Argo CD certification program

The presentation discusses the benefits of using virtual Argo CD instances for managing Kubernetes clusters and how it is implemented in the Codefresh platform.
  • Virtual Argo CD instances provide one-click installation, zero configuration, and flexibility in managing multiple instances and Kubernetes versions.
  • Codefresh uses a centralized setup that is cost-effective, allows for security isolation, and enables testing of new versions without affecting other customers.
  • Monitoring is done using Prometheus and Grafana stacks, as well as a proprietary exporter.
  • A demo is provided to show how virtual Argo CD instances are provisioned and deprovisioned.

The presentation discusses the scalability and security challenges of using Argo CD in large organizations and offers strategies for addressing them.
  • Argo CD is a tool for managing Kubernetes applications that can support large numbers of developers and objects
  • The presenter offers a conservative benchmark for Argo CD scalability, suggesting that 15,000 objects and 50 clusters are safe limits
  • However, the presenter notes that with tweaking, Argo CD can support much larger numbers of objects and clusters
  • The presenter emphasizes the importance of security in using Argo CD, particularly in multi-tenant environments
  • The presenter suggests using an app of apps pattern to manage large numbers of objects and dependencies
  • The presenter recommends splitting Argo CD instances to provide better isolation and prevent noise
  • The presenter suggests that a control plane may be necessary for managing large numbers of Argo CD instances
  • The presenter notes that Adobe has been speaking at the conference and is part of a larger Adobe Cinematic Universe of talks

The presentation discusses how a platform built on top of Kubernetes can facilitate the creation and consumption of complex infrastructure, empowering application teams to continuously deliver value to end users. The platform team manages the complexity of getting an application into production, freeing up application teams to focus on writing code.
  • Using Kubernetes and its APIs allows for a clear separation between infrastructure and application development teams
  • Platform teams collaborate with application teams to understand their needs and pain points, and encode best practices and policies into the platform itself
  • The platform team automates the path to production in a safe way, freeing up application teams to focus on writing code
  • The platform team manages the complexity of getting an application into production, freeing up application teams to focus on writing code
