How Integrating ArgoCD with Crossplane Compositions Enabled a Unified GitOps Workflow

Explore how integrating ArgoCD with Crossplane Compositions creates a unified GitOps workflow in this 20-minute conference talk from CNCF's KubeCon + CloudNativeCon. Learn how Expedia Group established a cohesive system that combines ArgoCD's declarative deployment functionality with Crossplane's paradigm for provisioning cloud resources using Kubernetes-style APIs. Discover how Compositions enable managing multiple managed resources as a single object, allowing for synchronized versioning and automation of both application and infrastructure changes. Gain insights into the benefits of this integration, including a single ArgoCD UI pane that provides visibility into application sets and infrastructure, making ArgoCD agnostic to manifest changes for applications, S3 storages, or load balancers.
