GitOps
GitOps is a popular approach for deploying applications to Kubernetes clusters because it provides several benefits. Some of the reasons why wGitOps is a popular approach for deploying applications to Kubernetes clusters because it provides several benefits. Some of the reasons why we might want to implement GitOps in our Kubernetes deployment process include:
-
Git is a powerful and flexible version control system that can help us to track and manage changes to our infrastructure and application configuration. This can make it easier to roll back changes or compare different versions of the configuration, and can help us to ensure that our infrastructure and applications are always in the desired state.
-
GitOps provides a declarative approach to manage the infrastructure and applications. This means that we specify the desired state of our infrastructure and applications in configuration/definition files, and the GitOps tool ensures that the actual state of our infrastructure matches the desired state. This can help to prevent configuration drift and ensure that our infrastructure and applications are always in the desired state.
-
GitOps can automate the deployment process of our applications and infrastructure, which can help to reduce the time and effort required to roll out changes. This can improve the speed and reliability of our deployment process, and can help us to quickly and easily deliver changes to our applications and infrastructure.
-
GitOps can provide a central source of truth for our infrastructure and application configuration. This can help to ensure that everyone on the team is working with the same configuration, and can prevent conflicts and inconsistencies that can arise when multiple people are making changes to the configuration or infraestructure.
