SEPTEMBER 2022 GitOps for Kubernetes Essentials to Applications Hosted in Cloud-Native Ecosystems NINAD DESAI STAFF ENGINEER, INFRACLOUD CONTENTS • About GitOps for Kubernetes • Configuration Management Management in Kubernetes • GitOps for Kubernetes Essentials • Conclusion Git is the most widely used version control system, with more than 80 percent of its market share in today’s software industry running in Kubernetes. In this Refcard, we will dive into what GitOps means in the Kubernetes world, key principles, and the advantages for cloud-native ecosystems. ABOUT GITOPS FOR KUBERNETES Thanks
