Book Description
GitOps delivers on the vision promised to a DevOps culture, and while the practice isn't new, organizations are starting to realize how valuable it is to deliver products in a fast, highly automated, and secure way - without compromising the quality of their code. This book outlines the tools, workflows, and structures that teams need to have in place to enable a complete GitOps workflow for practitioners who are just getting started or considering developing their own GitOps practice.

- Understand where GitOps fits in your CI/CD (continuous integration/continuous delivery) pipelines and explore the various ways you can implement it
- Explore Argo CD, Flux, and other popular tools used to manage GitOps workflows, and see how Kustomize, Helm, and Kubernetes Operators help minimize the management of lengthy configuration files
- Get tips for setting up policies and security for your Git workflows
