One of the hottest keywords in the DevOps space is AppOps
. As the DevOps ecosystem matures, the focus shifts from automation and continuous delivery to enriching the developer experience.
AppOps takes an application-centric
approach that enables developers to use self-service tools
to build, deploy, and operate their applications on the latest cloud-native platforms.
Over the past few years, we've seen a variety of great open source tools to reach some of this goal, creating a seamless experience
that spans CI / CD, security, cost management, and observability.
Overview of Devtron
Devtron is an open-source tool
that pulls together a number of popular components such as ArgoCD, Clair, external secrets, and minio
to bootstrap a fully managed application delivery platform on Kubernetes.
Underneath the hood, it leverages GitOps principles
to create sample CI/CD pipelines, integrated with security scanning and observability tools via a slick application dashboard.
For teams looking to adopt Kubernetes at scale, Devtron offers a quick way to provide developers and platform teams a way to onboard their applications onto Kubernetes without having to fumble with various YAML files and piecing together complex tools.
Devtron's Advantages
- Devtron makes some
unique design decisions
about what your cloud-native application delivery workflow will look like. - It comes with
preconfigured templates
for automating the construction, publishing, scanning, and deployment of Docker processes using several built-in guardrails. - This is ideal for teams struggling to manage all Kubernetes tools or wanting to adopt a
Kubernetes workflow with minimal overhead
. - The console makes it easy for both developers and DevOps teams to repeatedly onboard new applications.
