Overview

Werf is an open-source CI/CD tool designed to simplify and accelerate application delivery to Kubernetes. It integrates with existing CI systems and acts as a CLI tool to build Docker images and deploy them to Kubernetes using Helm charts. Werf is built with GitOps in mind, as it tracks all code and configuration in Git and automates the delivery process based on Git commits.

✨ Key Features

  • Integrated image builder (using Dockerfiles) and deployer
  • Advanced Helm chart management and deployment
  • Content-based tagging for Docker images
  • Integrates with any existing CI system (GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, etc.)
  • Efficient cleanup of unused images in the container registry

🎯 Key Differentiators

  • Combines image building and deployment into a single, cohesive workflow
  • Advanced features for Helm chart management and templating
  • Content-based image tagging for immutability

Unique Value: Provides a consistent and efficient tool to manage the entire delivery process to Kubernetes, from building images to deploying Helm charts, all driven by Git.

🎯 Use Cases (4)

Simplifying the process of building and deploying applications to Kubernetes Implementing a GitOps-driven CI/CD pipeline Managing complex Helm chart deployments Automating the entire delivery cycle from a single tool

✅ Best For

  • CI/CD pipelines for microservices on Kubernetes
  • Automating build, tag, push, and deploy steps with one command

💡 Check With Vendor

Verify these considerations match your specific requirements:

  • Teams looking for a full-fledged GitOps agent/reconciler like Argo CD
  • Deployments to non-Kubernetes targets

🏆 Alternatives

Skaffold Helm Argo CD

More comprehensive than using Helm alone, as it includes image building. More focused on the CI/CD pipeline execution (push model) than on continuous reconciliation (pull model) like Argo CD.
