Pipeline Performance Profiling: Making CI/CD Performance, Cost, and Bottlenecks Visible

Modern CI/CD pipelines are no longer just about whether builds succeed, they’re about how fast, how efficiently, and at what cost they run. One theme has come up consistently in customer conversations: “My builds are slow, expensive, and I don’t know where to start fixing that.”

Sustainable, high-velocity modern pipelines with GitHub, Octopus, and Arm-based AWS Graviton

Modern software teams are under pressure to deliver faster, more reliably, and with improved cost efficiency. In this webinar, experts from GitHub, Octopus Deploy, Arm, and AWS will share insights on how to combine these technologies into a powerful end-to-end pipeline that achieves all three goals.

Introducing Policies: Compliance from day 1, built into Platform Hub

We recently expanded Platform Hub with Policies, giving platform teams a foundation for compliance and consistency from day one. Governance moves out of scripts and spreadsheets and into the pipeline itself: visible, traceable, and automated from the first deployment. Using Rego, you can write custom policy checks based on your requirements, block non-compliant deployments, and access detailed audit logs of policy evaluation events.

Anatomy of a Pull Request Generator

Argo CD has built a number of Generators to support various scenarios that developers need when using Argo CD and Kubernetes. In this post, I’ll be discussing the Pull Request Generator. A Pull Request Generator is an Argo CD Application Set deployment type that is configured to “watch” a Git repository for Pull Requests (PRs). Whenever a new PR is submitted that matches the specified filter, Argo CD applies the manifests from the referenced repository and path.

Top Argo CD Anti-Patterns to avoid when adopting GitOps - Part 1 of 3

This is the first webinar in our three-part series. Join Kostis Kapelonis as he walks through common mistakes teams make when using Argo CD for GitOps. This session is great for everyone — whether you're just getting started or already experienced with GitOps. Learn what not to do, and how to avoid issues that can slow you down.

Top 30 Argo CD Anti-Patterns to Avoid When Adopting Gitops

The time has finally come! After the massive success of our Docker and Kubernetes guides, we are now ready to see several anti-patterns for Argo CD. Anti-patterns are questionable practices that people adopt because they seem like a good idea at first glance, but in the long run, they make processes more complicated than necessary. Several times, we have spoken with enthusiastic teams that recognize the benefits of Gitops and want to adopt Argo CD as quickly as possible.
