Getting Started With GitOps

Most organizations are always looking for ways to streamline their processes and improve efficiency by implementing automation. In recent years, software deployment has been done multiple times in a day rather than weeks or months. Organizations have moved from the waterfall models to hyper-agile methodologies and particularly due to the adoption of microservices architecture, teams are releasing their software much faster. To make this possible, GitOps implements a control-loop pattern more often seen in Kubernetes.

GitOps offers a more consistent and reliable way to handle infrastructure and deployment. In this blog, we’ll explore what GitOps is and why it’s becoming increasingly popular among DevOps teams. We will also walk through popular GitOps tools like Argo CD and Flux CD.
