Overview

Devtron 🚀

Devtron leverages popular open source tools to provide a No-Code SaaS like experience for creating Software Delivery workflows for Kubernetes. Devtron integrates seamlessly with multiple open-source tools to provide you an ecosystem for Kubernetes software delivery workflow, debugging, monitoring and holistic access management for the entire team.

Do check the Devtron Installation Guide ⎈

Why Devtron?

We have seen various tools that are used to greatly increase the ease of using Kubernetes. However, using these tools simultaneously is painful, and hard to use. This is due to the fact these tools don't talk to each other for managing different aspects of application lifecycle; including CI, CD, security, cost, observability, stabilization.

Thus, we built Devtron to solve this problem!

Devtron is an open source modular product providing 'seamless', 'implementation agnostic uniform interface', integrated with open source, and commercial tools across the entire life cycle. This is all achieved while focusing on a slick User Experience, including a self-serve model.
You can efficiently handle Security, Stability, Cost, and more in a unified experience.

Devtron Features:

Zero code software delivery workflow for Kubernetes

  • Workflow which understands the domain of Kubernetes, testing, CD, SecOps so that you dont have to write scripts
  • Reusable and composable components so that workflows are easy to contruct and reason through

Multi cloud deployment

  • Deploy to multiple Kubernetes clusters on multiple cloud/on-prem from one Devtron setup.
  • Works for all cloud providers and on-premise Kubernetes clusters.

Easy DevSecOps integration

  • Multi level security policy at global, cluster, environment and application for efficient hierarchical policy management
  • Behavior driven security policy
  • Define policies and exception for kubernetes resources
  • Define policies for events for faster resolution

Application debugging dashboard

  • One place for all historical kubernetes events
  • Access all manifests securely for eg secret obfuscation
  • Application metrics for cpu, ram, http status code and latency with comparison between new and old
  • Advanced logging with grep and json search
  • Intelligent correlation between events, logs for faster triangulation of issue
  • Auto issue identification

Enterprise Grade security and compliances

  • Fine grained access control; control who can edit configuration and who can deploy.
  • Audit log to know who did what and when
  • History of all CI and CD events
  • Kubernetes events impacting application
  • Relevant cloud events and their impact on applications
  • Advanced workflow policies like blackout window, branch environment relationship to secure build and deployment pipelines

GitOps aware

  • GitOps exposed through API and UI so that you dont have to interact with git CLI
  • GitOps backed by postgres for easier analysis
  • Enforce finer access control than git

Operational insights

  • Deployment metrics to measure success of agile process. It captures mttr, change failure rate, deployment frequency, deployment size out of the box.
  • Audit log to understand the failure causes
  • Monitor changes across deployments and revert easily

Compatibility notes

  • It uses modified version of argo rollout.
  • Application metrics only works for k8s 1.16+
