Summary

Argo CD is a continuous delivery tool for Kubernetes that automates application deployment by monitoring live state and comparing it to desired state in manifest files. It enables GitOps compatibility, allowing changes to be tracked via Git. The Datadog Argo CD integration helps visualize activity across clusters, troubleshoot with metrics from every component, and quickly detect application sync issues using preconfigured monitors for key Argo CD metrics. By monitoring all three main components of Argo CD - repository server, application controller, and API server - users can ensure their Kubernetes cluster stays up to date with manifest files. The integration also includes a recommended, preconfigured monitor that alerts users to any app sync failures.
