Argo Events - The Event-Based Dependency Manager for Kubernetes

What is Argo Events?

Argo Events is an event-based dependency manager for Kubernetes. The core concept of the project are

gateways which are implemented as a Kubernetes-native Custom Resource Definition that process events from event source.
sensors which are implemented as a Kubernetes-native Custom Resource Definition that define a set of event dependencies and trigger actions.
- Define multiple dependencies from a variety of gateway event sources
- Build custom gateways to support business-level constraint logic
- Trigger Kubernetes object creation after successful dependency resolution
- Trigger escalation after errors, or dependency constraint failures
- Build and manage a distributed, cross-team, event-driven architecture
- Easily leverage Kubernetes-native APIs to monitor dependencies

Runtime agnostic. The first runtime and package agnostic event framework for Kubernetes.
Containers. Designed from the ground-up as Kubernetes-native.
Extremely lightweight. All gateways, with the exception of calendar-based gateways, are event-driven, meaning that there is no polling involved.
Configurable. Configure gateways at runtime
Scalable & Resilient.
Simple or Complex dependencies. Manage everything from simple, linear, real-time dependencies to complex, multi-source, batch job dependencies.
