Deploy, Manage and Observe on multiple clusters

• Deploy and manage Helm charts, applications across multiple Kubernetes clusters (hosted on multiple clouds/on-prem) right from a single Devtron setup

Integrations

Devtron is designed to be modular, and its functionality can be easily extended with the help of integrations.

CI/CD Integration

Devtron CI/CD with GitOps integration is used to automate the builds and deployments and enables the software development teams to focus on meeting the business requirements, code quality, and security.

• Devtron leverages Kubernetes auto-scaling and centralized caching to give you unlimited cost-efficient CI workers.
• Supports pre-CI and post-CI integrations for code quality monitoring.
• Seamlessly integrates with Clair for image vulnerability scanning.
• Supports different deployment strategies: Blue/Green, Rolling, Canary, and Recreate.
• Implements GitOps to manage the state of Kubernetes applications.
• Integrates with ArgoCD for continuous deployment.
• Checks logs, events, and manifests or exec inside containers for debugging.
• Provides deployment metrics like; deployment frequency, lead time, change failure rate, and mean-time recovery.
• Seamlessly integrates with Grafana for continuous application metrics like CPU and memory usage, status code, throughput, and latency on the dashboard.

Architecture

Installation

Before you begin, you must create a Kubernetes cluster (preferably K8s 1.16 or higher) and install Helm.

1. Install Devtron with CI/CD Integration

Run the following command to install the latest version of Devtron along with the CI/CD module:

helm repo add devtron https://helm.devtron.ai

helm install devtron devtron/devtron-operator \
--create-namespace --namespace devtroncd \
--set installer.modules={cicd}

Access Devtron

URL: Use the following command to get the dashboard URL:

kubectl get svc -n devtroncd devtron-service -o jsonpath='{.status.loadBalancer.ingress}'

Credentials:

UserName: admin
Password: Run the following command to get the admin password for Devtron version v0.6.0 and higher

kubectl -n devtroncd get secret devtron-secret -o jsonpath='{.data.ADMIN_PASSWORD}' | base64 -d

For Devtron version less than v0.6.0, run the following command to get the admin password:

kubectl -n devtroncd get secret devtron-secret -o jsonpath='{.data.ACD_PASSWORD}' | base64 -d

Please refer to the document for more information on how to access the Devtron Dashboard.

Installation Status

The above install command for CI/CD integration starts Devtron-operator, which takes about 20 minutes to spin up all of the Devtron microservices one by one. You can check the status of the installation with the following command:

kubectl -n devtroncd get installers installer-devtron \
-o jsonpath='{.status.sync.status}'

The command executes with one of the following output messages, indicating the status of the installation:

• Downloaded: The installer has downloaded all the manifests, and installation is in progress.
• Applied: The installer has successfully applied all the manifests, and the installation is complete.

2. Install Devtron with Helm Bundle

helm repo add devtron https://helm.devtron.ai

helm install devtron devtron/devtron-operator --create-namespace --namespace devtroncd
