Why CI/CD Pipelines Struggle with GitOps
(And How Kargo Fixes It)
CI/CD pipelines were built for traditional infrastructure—not for GitOps and Kubernetes. While GitOps improves deployment automation, most teams still struggle with progressive delivery, environment promotions, and verification.
Instead of relying on custom scripts and manual approvals, Kargo introduces Continuous Promotion—a GitOps-native solution for automating safe and controlled rollouts across environments.
