Learn how to manage Kubernetes clusters and application configurations with Argo CD, the easy-to-use open source GitOps engine. With this practical book, development teams will quickly gain a foundational understanding of Argo CD for deploying and managing containerized applications - without having to be a Kubernetes expert, and without needing full access to an existing Kubernetes environment.

With the adoption of Kubernetes, the ability to effectively manage platform configurations has become a paramount concern. Authors Andrew Block from Red Hat and Christian Hernandez from Akuity show you how to apply GitOps practices with Argo CD to manage one or even thousands of Kubernetes environments with confidence. You'll start with a basic understanding of the Argo CD technology and quickly learn how to achieve faster and more secure deployments.

With this book, you will:

Learn the basics of applying GitOps principles to your Kubernetes environments
Use Argo CD to manage Kubernetes configurations as well as the applications you deploy to the platform
Manage the configurations of a single Kubernetes cluster or thousands of clusters
Deploy Kubernetes resources using tools such as Kustomize and Helm
Understand the importance of managing sensitive material and resources
