Adobe runs 430 clusters across 7 providers in 22 regions and deploys at scale — 554 addon deployments in February to a Fleet of ~50,000 Argo CD applications. The team uses Cluster API, ACK, Argo CD/ApplicationSet, Argo Workflows, Prometheus/Grafana and kube-state-metrics to emit custom Prometheus metrics from Argo CD app CRs (sync start/end, sync windows), join via Prometheus rewrite rules, filter false alerts (deny windows, long-running syncs) and route enriched Slack alerts to the committer. A reproducible demo uses vcluster and an IDP Builder CLI and proves the approach works.
