Summary

Keptn, an open-source project under the CNCF, aims to address challenges in software delivery by automating build validation using SLI/SLO-based quality gates, breaking monolithic pipelines into event-driven delivery choreography, and embracing event-driven auto-remediation with an SLO-based safety net. It integrates with various data sources like Prometheus, Dynatrace, and Neoload to validate metrics against predefined SLOs, facilitating continuous delivery by enabling teams to define their own quality criteria via dashboards. This approach simplifies the process for non-technical users and enhances existing DevOps toolchains, as demonstrated by users leveraging Keptn in Jenkins, Azure DevOps, and GitLab for streamlined build validation and performance test orchestration. The project encourages community involvement to drive innovation and offers a free trial of Dynatrace to explore these capabilities further.
