D2iQ Launches GitOps Platform Dispatch

by

Enterprise-grade cloud platform D2iQ announces new GitOps platform to accelerate continuous integration and delivery of cloud native applications.

Software engineering teams are under constant pressure to deliver new features quickly and organizations are struggling to reduce complexity and accelerate the development and delivery of new application capabilities.

According to D2iQ, Dispatch delivers a number of benefits to address these issues across three core categories, including;

  • Developer Empowerment: Dispatch empowers developers with a single-pipeline solution that builds anywhere, without requiring configuration changes. By providing a powerful, easy-to-use build orchestration tool, multiple declarative languages to configure pipelines and personal development environments, Dispatch increases productivity enabling developers to independently manage their pipeline, without central teams slowing them down.  This significantly enhances the developer experience.
  • Operational Freedom: With GitOps code repositories for the configuration of a Kubernetes cluster, application or other infrastructure, Dispatch provides operators with the flexibility to make localized pipeline changes without affecting the global state of the system, while also empowering operators to validate without user impact. Dispatch also provides operational freedom over a variety of target environments and can be deployed locally or on private/public cloud Kubernetes, standardizing the CI/CD process across the organization. While Dispatch can run independently of other D2iQ products, the platform is optimized to run on D2iQ Konvoy, providing immediate benefit to customers when the solutions are deployed together.
  • Cloud Native Foundation: Dispatch is built from the ground up with open-source cloud native technologies, enabling developers to take advantage of the feature-rich infrastructure. This infrastructure allows developers to seamlessly integrate their underlying Kubernetes features into their build while providing choices to improve their specific platform over time as new technologies advance.
