GitOps is a Kubernetes application delivery methodology. It aims to simplify the deployment and operation of Kubernetes applications.

In this article we will use Flux, which can be installed as a Kubernetes operator.

The Flux operator keeps the cluster state and a repository in sync. Any configuration change made in the repository is automatically applied to the Kubernetes cluster.

In this guide we will set up Flux and deploy a demo application via the Git repository.

Prerequisites

To get started, we need kubectl connected to a Kubernetes cluster and a Git repository in Gitlab.
