Talk Title:
"From GitOps to a scalable CI/CD pattern for Kubernetes"
Abstract:
GitOps is getting an increasing amount of attention as 'the way to do
CI/CD for Kubernetes'. Try to figure out an actual arrangement of
repositories & automated flows to implement such a pipeline at scale,
though, & you'll likely find that there are still many details to be
sorted out, gotchas to be puzzled over, & tradeoffs to be made.
Andrew will examine various aspect of what is often talked about as
GitOps & highlight the underlying principles, as well as how they
related to well-known practices that we are already familiar with, such
as source & compiled artifacts & infra-as-code.
He'll then use those to describe & demonstrate a CI/CD pattern for
Kubernetes that can be implemented with different tooling combinations
(including a "vanilla GitOps" approach), & talk about how to choose
the most appropriate setup for your scenario."
