Promotions and Multi-Environment Deployments with Kargo
Tuesday | August 19th, 2025 | 8:00 am - 9:00 am PST
Managing deployments across multiple environments can quickly become complex, especially when the process relies on manual, developer-driven coordination. This leads to delays, inconsistencies, and limited scalability.
Join Brad Schmidt, Principal Platform Engineer at JumpCloud, and Jesse Suen, Argo CD Maintainer & Co-Founder of Akuity, as they share how JumpCloud streamlined and automated multi-environment deployments using Kargo.
They’ll walk through JumpCloud’s real-world Kargo implementation, from integrating with GitHub Actions, Argo CD, and Argo Rollouts, to setting up promotion gates, verifying deployments, and leveraging Helm and Kubernetes for full pipeline automation.
Register today and learn:
- Why JumpCloud adopted Kargo to simplify multi-environment deployments
- How Kargo enabled JumpCloud to increase reliability at scale
- A demo of Kargo promotion pipeline
- Key use cases and when to consider using Kargo
