Implementação e avaliação do ARGOCD no laboratório de sistemas distribuídos da UFCG.

Abstract

This work addresses the implementation and evaluation of ArgoCD in the UFCG Distributed Systems Laboratory, with a focus on automating the life cycle of applications in Kubernetes. We consider evaluating the ArgoCD tool to simplify application lifecycle automation to enable GitOps-based continuous deliveries. The problem faced lies in the need to maintain consistency between the desired and actual state of the resources in use, challenges present in environments that use containers. The ArgoCD evaluation demonstrated positive results, including successful configuration and hands on learning. The integration of the tool improved the efficiency in the management and automation of the application deployment process, highlighting its relevance as a solution for the orchestration of applications in Kubernetes environments.
