Kargo is a continuous promotion orchestration layer, that complements Argo CD for Kubernetes

Built and maintained by the creators of Argo, Kargo is designed to streamline multi-stage application promotion by applying GitOps principles—eliminating the need for custom automation or reliance on CI pipelines.

With seamless integration into existing systems like Argo CD, Kargo automates progressive rollouts across the entire application lifecycle, enhancing efficiency, safety, and visibility at every stage of deployment.

What is Kargo?

Kargo is designed to offer a flexible and intuitive layer atop existing GitOps tools. It enables you to define and manage the relationships between multiple application instances deployed across environments.

Kargo automates the promotion of changes from one environment to the next, using the source of truth from one stage as the foundation for the next—without manual intervention.

Why Kargo?

Next-gen GitOps-First Approach

Kargo treats your configuration as code, promoting changes in the same way container images are promoted. Using a state-driven promotion process, Kargo seamlessly tracks updates from git artifacts, container images, Helm charts, and more—all adhering to GitOps principles and working with your current Kubernetes infrastructure.    

Built for Progressive Deployment

Kargo introduces powerful progressive deployment strategies, eliminating the need for custom scripts in your CI tools. No more relying on CI-generated artifacts as your source of truth—Kargo manages everything through a native CD solution, designed specifically for Kubernetes environments.

Seamless Developer Experience

Kargo enhances developer workflows by introducing guardrails and deep insights, enabling developers to manage their own promotions confidently. With frictionless promotion and rollback capabilities, developers can promote container images, Kubernetes manifests, and Helm charts effortlessly.
