Argo CD v3.1 Introduces OCI Support and Enhanced UI Capabilities
"This feature, led by Blake Pettersson from Akuity, allows organizations to store and distribute deployment configurations using the same registries they use for container images. "As OCI registries have more frequently been used to store content aside from container images, more and more projects have been adding support for using OCI as a storage mechanism," the announcement explains. The OCI support enhances security and portability by enabling Argo CD to pull Kubernetes manifests packaged as OCI artifacts from any OCI-compliant registry"
"The Argo Project has announced the release of Argo CD v3.1, marking the first major feature update since the foundational v3.0 release. This version introduces OCI registry support, CLI plugins, enhanced Hydrator functionality, and improved user interface capabilities, positioning the GitOps tool for broader enterprise adoption. The most significant addition in v3.1 is native support for Open Container Initiative (OCI) registries as sources for Kubernetes configuration artifacts."
Argo CD v3.1 introduces native OCI registry support so Kubernetes manifests packaged as OCI artifacts can be pulled from OCI-compliant registries, improving security and portability. The release adds CLI plugin support and enhances the Hydrator to associate dry commits with upstream code commits by capturing repository URL, commit SHA, author details, and commit messages. Hydrator metadata enables richer UI context for configuration changes and better traceability between image tag updates and corresponding code changes. Enhanced user interface capabilities and enterprise-focused features aim to broaden GitOps adoption.
