Argo CD Kubernetes Rollout Patterns — Blue-Green & Canary Deployments
Progressive delivery with automated rollbacks and traffic control
Progressive delivery on Kubernetes with Argo CD and Argo Rollouts (Sep 2024 – Dec 2024): Blue-Green and Canary deployment examples and manifests. GitOps-driven deployment strategies with ready-to-use Kubernetes manifests for safe releases, automated rollbacks, and gradual traffic shifting. Production-ready patterns for modern cloud-native deployments.

Technical Highlights
- Blue-Green deployments with active/preview services for instant rollback and zero-downtime releases
- Canary deployments with gradual traffic shifting (20% → 50% → 100%) and configurable pause steps
- GitOps workflow using Argo CD for declarative sync from Git with Argo Rollouts CRDs
- Kubernetes-native manifests with Services, Ingress, and AnalysisTemplates for automated health checks
Challenges & Solutions
- Safe production releases → Implemented progressive delivery patterns with automated rollback on failure
- Traffic management complexity → Used Argo Rollouts for declarative traffic splitting with pause controls
