v2.1 Release Blog

Argo CD Core

Argo CD Core - lightweight Argo CD distribution that packages only core GitOps features and relies
on Kubernetes API/RBAC to power UI and CLI.

Core Features

  • The synchronization process became much much faster and requires significantly less memory.
  • An additional caching that ensures that each repository's target revisions are queried only once per
    reconciliation cycle. This dramatically reduces the number of Git requests.
  • Improved Diffing Customizations: use JQ path expressions to exclude required fields from the diffing.
  • Health assessment support for new CRDs: introduced health assessment of CRDs from trident.netapp.io,
    elasticsearch.k8s.elastic.co, cluster.x-k8s.io, and minio.min.io API groups.

Improved Settings

A set of changes had been implemented to simplify configuring Argo CD.

  • Simplified Repository Registration: you no longer need to modify the argocd-cm ConfigMap to register a
    new Git or Helm repository.
  • Enhanced Resource Customizations: the resource.customizations key has been deprecated in favor of
    a separate ConfigMap key per resource.
  • Reference secret values from any Kubernetes secret: starting v2.1 you can use sensitive data stored in
    any Kubernetes secret to configure Argo CD.
  • Simplify parametrization of Argo CD server processes: an additional optional ConfigMap argocd-cmd-params-cm
    has been introduced.

Refreshed User Interface

  • Enhanced and more consistent filters on Applications List and Applications Details pages.
  • Status bar on the Application List page.
  • The redesigned search box on the Application List page and more.
