Simplify Kubernetes Application Deployments using GitOps with Kustomize and ArgoCD for Streamlined Configuration
Deploying and managing applications in Kubernetes can become complex, especially when managing multiple environments like development, staging, and production. Tools like ArgoCD and Kustomize simplify this process by enabling a declarative, GitOps-based approach for managing Kubernetes resources.
ArgoCD automates the deployment process from Git repositories, while Kustomize provides a clean and reusable way to configure Kubernetes manifests across different environments.
This article will guide you through using Kustomize with ArgoCD for streamlined and efficient application deployment in Kubernetes.
Before diving into the implementation steps, it’s essential to understand what Kustomize and ArgoCD bring to the table:
Kustomize
Kustomize is a configuration management tool for Kubernetes that allows you to manage your manifests without the need for templating. It allows users to define base configurations and then customize…
