Centralized control – managing clusters with a solo Argo instance
As organizations grow and evolve, the demand for scalable, secure, and efficient deployment strategies becomes increasingly critical. Argo CD, a key player in the GitOps field [1, 2], stands out for its comprehensive capabilities in scaling across various aspects, such as performance, security, usability, and failover processes. In this section, we’ll delve into the nuances of different architectural models and the intricacies of operational management. However, before we dive into these topics, it’s essential to address a few preliminary points that significantly influence decision-making in this realm:
- Security considerations: Security in scaling with Argo CD involves a robust combination of role-based access control (RBAC) and single sign-on (SSO) mechanisms. A key security feature is the client-side rendering of manifests, which reduces the threat landscape. However, the power of tools...
