GitOps Principle
Git as single source of truth
Your Kubernetes manifests and Helm charts live in GitLab; Argo CD automatically syncs the desired state into the cluster.
Delivery
Made in Germany
With managed Argo CD based on GitOps, we operate your delivery control plane – rollbacks, synchronization, and multi-cluster deployments on sovereign infrastructure, so your developers ship releases instead of running pipelines.

DSGVO-konform
DORA Compliant
24/7 Support
Control deployments declaratively
Our delivery service is based on Argo CD in the Platform Cluster – GitOps without months of in-house build-out, predictable operating costs, and releases instead of pipeline ops. ayedo handles updates and availability, including Redis, SSO, and multi-cluster support.
Multi-Cluster
One control plane
Manage staging, production, and multiple regions centrally through a shared control plane – with app-of-apps and ApplicationSets.
Rollback & History
Safe releases
Return to previous revisions with a single click. A complete deployment history and a diff view before every sync provide full traceability.
Progressive Delivery
Canary & blue-green
The integration with Argo Rollouts enables gradual deployments without downtime – safeguarded by automatic health checks.
SSO & RBAC
Fine-grained permissions
OIDC integration with your identity provider is included. Projects and roles let you control access for teams and environments.
EU Infrastructure
Sovereign hosting
Your deployment control plane runs entirely on European infrastructure, keeping your delivery pipeline free of dependencies outside the EU.

Integration with Polycrate
Argo CD connects code repository, secrets management, and Kubernetes into an end-to-end delivery pipeline.
Code Repository
From pipeline to cluster
GitLab CI builds and tests your software, while Argo CD deploys it from the same Git repository to production.
Managed Kubernetes
Target clusters
Your deployments land in managed Kubernetes – staging and production are managed through a shared control plane.
Secrets Management
Secure deployments
Argo CD retrieves secrets from Vault at deployment time – they never appear in plain text in Git or in Helm values.
You build it. We run it.
Excellent performance and maximum uptime - that's what we wake up for. And sometimes even in the middle of the night.
100+ clusters
under Management
We operate more than 100 Kubernetes clusters in production for our customers.
300+ databases
