Redefining the Multi-Cluster Story of Argo CD

This conference talk explores how the Argoproj-Labs project argocd-agent is revolutionizing multi-cluster management in Argo CD. Discover how this new community-driven initiative inverts the traditional architecture paradigm by allowing managed clusters to connect to Argo CD through an agent rather than having Argo CD connect to them. Learn about the limitations of the current multi-cluster architecture as organizations deploy and manage growing numbers of clusters across edge locations, regions, data centers, and environments. Explore how the agent model significantly improves scalability, reliability, and security for large-scale Argo CD multi-cluster setups. Gain insights into maintaining a central control plane while scaling out to the edge, addressing the challenges faced when managing cloud native applications across distributed environments.
