ArgoCD Tutorial for Beginners | GitOps CD for Kubernetes

Full ArgoCD Tutorial | Learn about the GitOps CD tool for Kubernetes
#argocd #gitops #techworldwithnana
This ArgoCD crash course teaches you everything to get started with ArgoCD. ArgoCD is a GitOps continuous delivery tool that is gaining popularity in the DevOps world.
First, you will learn what ArgoCD is and what are the common use cases or why we need ArgoCD.
Then, you will see how ArgoCD actually works and how it does its job.
In the final part, we will do a hands-on demo project, where we deploy ArgoCD in Kubernetes and setup a fully automated CD pipeline for Kubernetes configuration changes to get some practical experience with ArgoCD.

[@akmalbaig6154]

I just have one doubt , if we enable autosync will it rollback changes made by hpa ?? Like if we increase the replicas using hpa , will argocd sync it back to what it has in deployment file???

[@mariog9480]

@@akmalbaig6154 As far as I know yes, it will change it back. If I'm not mistaken they (Argo people) are working on that. You can remove the number of replicas from your deployment as a workaround and let HPA deal with it

[@thewatched6559]

Hi Nana... You're good at this, what a blessing you are.

[@venkatabhilash]

@TechWorldwithNana Very resourceful video but I encountered a few issues, it wasn't a straightforward success for me, firstly the login didn't work had to restart the API server after doing that I did login but wasn't able to perform sync. I kept getting "ComparisonError rpc error: code = Unknown desc = authentication required". Did anyone face this issue, can anyone please help?

[@iamshahleo]

Hi, how can we access the application u have deployed?

[@infinity-labs-edu]

The level of understanding you have to have to explain this so easily as you do is astonishing. Congratulations!

[@ahtashamulhassan6260]

@Nana you are a gift teacher. Explained so nicely and to the point. Your lectures are worth than doing certificates

[@jimbrent8151]

Absolutely excellent. I took an excellent 20 hour online course to learn ArgoCD.This was actually a little bit better presentation of the material.

[@flesz_]

I find all those 20h+ courses pretty useless as they are too long and difficult to complete

[@manuel-stroehmer]

Wow, definitely one of the best tutorials I've ever seen - Thank you!

[@0megal2]

What a great tutorial! I've been working with fluxCD for a while now, but the ArgoCD UI looks really good when you are dealing with audits. Great content as always Nana!

[@madhuvanthisridhar5965]

Amazing and short tutorials to really learn the fundamental and most important concepts well! Keep posting Nana!

[@thomash.8297]

Thank you Nana. So easy to understand a complex topic.

[@milindatalwatte]

I have no clue how someone can explain something so effortlessly and accurately in such little time. You have a gift, thank you. I'm now tempted to go through every technology video you've ever made to see what else can be learned.

[@RootsterAnon]

binge watching! :D

[@taint_misbehavin]

This was excellent! Really good transition from high-level, great comparison with other solutions and tools, great intro walkthrough of using the app. Bravo 👏👏👏

[@antoniomasotti8060]

Awesome! Thanks for another excellent video! :) I will start experimenting with argocd right away

[@robertodedeus8023]

This was very helpful. Thank you for the high quality content.

[@yohan_aka_spof]

This is high quality content. I have a new go-to channel when searching for DevOps content.

[@conradtaylor29]

During my initial attempt trying to set up ArgoCD, I spent way too much time running into issue after issue trying to get things working using docs and Minikube. After watching this video, I was able to get up and operational as well as learn about ArgoCD in much less time. Bravo!!!!

[@aniketmemane4374]

Thanks Nana ! Found it very helpful🙂

[@GerardoAguirre-hp9ik]

What an amazing resource! Thx for your effort

[@truphenalwanga9829]

I don't know how I would ever learn these DevOps concepts without Nana. Thanks a ton. 🖤 from Kenya!

[@karimnaufal9792]

Learned a lot! Thank you, you are a great teacher.

[@user-xd5uq8hw6r]

Excellent tutorial. Kudos to Nana for making this awesome video tutorial

[@josephglaspie8385]

Nana, you rock! Thanks for making these great videos

[@adonsav]

Awesome work as always! Thanks again 🙏

[@laci319]

Great video again! It would worth to mention the side effects of auto heal with event/metric based auto- or scheduled scalers like Keda, HPA, etc. It seems any scaling will be taken out by ArgoCD if "auto heal" is enabled. It is common to scale your replicas based on conditions like load or schedule.

[@dfreedman2010]

I commented yesterday on a GitLab CICD video you created where you introduced Twingate, which I got up and running easily. However, now I find out about Argo CD which is an even better way to use remote repo for private lab deployment to K8S. Thank you so much! Your videos are awesome.

[@melihatalay2127]

Excellent video. I watched and configured my existing projects. Many thanks 👍

[@sealuke2724]

Nana, i love u really love how you explain tons of themes.

[@ameyamagashe]

Master Blaster! Amazing content, I cannot thank you enough!

[@arunmanglick]

Awesome Details... Brilliantly covered .. Thank you so much

[@anka01]

I'm surprised that there are so few likes despite having so many subscribers. It was really useful content, I benefited a lot. thank you so much.

[@yshu-ky4fb]

awesome as always!!

[@rohitpatil6692]

Super userfull video tutorial on ArgoCD. Thanks Nana.

[@KennyLong1]

Hi Nana! Another excellent video! I've been doing software for years and your intro videos are always really well done. I had Argo up and running in an hour. You always do a great job of finding the right depth. I often learn the most important aspects in less than an hour - while online classes that are many hours longer don't cover the critical parts nearly as well. How about a video on Kustomize?

[@supratheesh]

Exactly! Even I will search Nana + Topic to learn anything quickly nowadays. Thanks Nana for the good videos which covers almost everything needed to get started.

[@mauriciocmarinho]

Amazing! Thanks for this class

[@ProCoder2007]

Thank you very much for this in-depth explanation :)

[@spattanaik75]
