The record

Purpose: Argo Rollouts is a Kubernetes controller and set of CRDs providing blue-green, canary, canary analysis, experimentation, and progressive delivery capabilities.
Deployment strategies: Rollouts supports BlueGreen, Canary, and Rolling Update strategies.
Traffic management: It supports fine-grained weighted traffic shifting and integrations with ingress controllers and service meshes.
Traffic providers: Supported traffic providers include AWS ALB, Ambassador Edge Stack, Apache APISIX, Google Cloud, Gateway API, Istio, Kong, NGINX, SMI, and Traefik.
Metrics: Metric provider integrations include Prometheus, Wavefront, Kayenta, Web, Kubernetes Jobs, Datadog, New Relic, Graphite, and InfluxDB.
Automation: Rollouts can perform automated promotions and rollbacks based on metric analysis, alongside manual judgement.
Argo CD dependency: Argo Rollouts is standalone and does not require Argo CD or another Argo project.
Installation: The controller can be installed with standard or namespace-scoped manifests, and the kubectl plugin is optional.
Release platforms: Release assets include CLI binaries for macOS, Linux, and Windows in amd64 and arm64 variants where provided.
Notifications: The Notifications Engine supports configurable triggers and templates, including integrations such as Slack and Microsoft Teams.
Security: Security vulnerabilities can be reported confidentially to [email protected], with advisories published through GitHub Security Advisories.
Artifact verification: Container images are cosign-signed and release artifacts have SLSA provenance that can be verified with cosign or slsa-verifier.
Operational scope: The project currently supports a single Kubernetes deployment or application within a single cluster and requires a controller in each cluster using Rollouts.
Compatibility limits: Applications using shared resources or worker-style queue processing may not work well with Argo Rollouts, and infrastructure applications are not recommended use cases.
