Scale GitOps With the Argo CD Agent and Open Cluster Management - August Simonelli & Joshua Packer, Red Hat
Tuesday April 1, 2025 16:50 - 17:15 BST
Level 1 | Hall Entrance S10 | Room A
If you’re running a multicluster environment—and really, who isn’t?—you can face challenges scaling deployments across your fleet no matter how big. Agent-based solutions can often be the best option to solve this.

The Argo CD Agent is a lightweight solution that helps Argo CD deployments scale more easily. The agent is quite notable in that it doesn’t require a permanent network connection and is lightweight and extensible allowing workload clusters to stay autonomous. In this session we will take a technical deep dive into the agent architecture.

We will demonstrate how to deploy the agent using the implementation of the Sig-Multicluster specification found in the Open Cluster Manager (OCM-io) project. Using OCM-io’s Add-on framework and the Argo CD Agent you’ll see how these two community tools and open standards help you with managing your GitOps at scale more reliably.
