Argo Workflows

Updated at:

Argo Workflows is a cloud-native workflow engine for orchestrating batch jobs on Kubernetes and a Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) graduated project. The Argo Workflows add-on makes this engine available in your clusters, and its release notes keep you informed of new versions and their impact.

Overview

This add-on is built on the open-source Argo Workflows project and enhanced for stability and performance, so you can deploy large-scale workflows in your clusters. It is designed primarily for standardized workflow scenarios, such as machine learning pipelines, autonomous driving simulations, gene sequencing tasks, batch data processing, CI/CD, and infrastructure automation.
