Overview
Akuity was founded by the creators of Argo CD to offer a managed, enterprise-grade version of that GitOps toolchain. Its platform runs Argo CD and Argo Rollouts as a hosted control plane with single sign-on, audit trails and multi-cluster visibility. Engineering teams adopt it to deploy to Kubernetes without maintaining the delivery tooling themselves.
