Managing Millions of Storage Volumes at Scale - Inside DigitalOcean's ArgoCD Strategy

Learn how DigitalOcean's Storage Platform team revolutionized their deployment process by implementing ArgoCD to manage millions of storage volumes across 13 global regions in this 19-minute conference talk. Discover the architectural decisions behind using a single ArgoCD instance to orchestrate 13+ clusters while maintaining sub-5-minute deployment times for their StorK8s platform. Explore real-world implementation of canary and blue-green deployment patterns specifically designed for stateful workloads, and understand why centralized GitOps proved more effective than federation for their massive scale operations. Gain insights into the challenges of managing storage infrastructure at scale, learn from both successful strategies and failed approaches, and uncover the key techniques that enabled reliable GitOps scaling for millions of storage volumes across DigitalOcean's global infrastructure.
