We dive into the challenges faced with Argo CD’s current synchronization strategy. Despite its wide adoption for managing Kubernetes deployments, there are cracks in the system’s design, particularly when it comes to handling sync operations. We’ll explore why Argo CD’s insistence on strong consistency is causing more problems than it solves and discuss how an eventual consistency model could be the game-changer that Argo CD needs to streamline deployment workflows and minimize outages.
