💡 Why Devtron?

It is designed as a self-serve platform for operationalizing and maintaining applications (AppOps) on kubernetes in a developer friendly way.

🎉 Features

Zero code software delivery workflow

• 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 cluster

Easy dev-sec-ops 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 e.g. 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
