Application development

A workload reaches the cluster from a marketplace entry, a container image, a Helm chart, an Operator or your own Git repository. Whichever path it takes, what lands in the cluster is standard Kubernetes objects, so a workload deployed from the marketplace can afterwards be inspected, edited and exported like one you wrote by hand.

The delivery tooling runs on the platform itself: GitLab for source control, Tekton for pipelines, Argo CD for reconciling manifests from Git.
