GitOps Guide to the Galaxy: Digging Deeper Into Flux

In this episode, we'll talk about some of the features of Flux a little more in-depth and reveal some OpenShift specific enhancements.

Scott Rigby and Cornelia Davis from Weaveworks return to dig a little deeper into the components of Flux on OpenShift. In the previous episode, Scott and Cornelia introduced Flux, and in this episode, we'll talk about some of the features of Flux a little more in-depth and reveal some OpenShift specific enhancements.

Learn how to use the GitOps methodology to simplify your Kubernetes deployments. In this guide we will set up Flux and deploy a demo application via the Git repository.

Flux is a scalable open market protocol enabling markets on any asset, commodity, or event. Easily connect to Flux with the open source Javascript SDK to enable scalable, permission-less markets. Flux provides a user-friendly way to trade derivatives based on startup milestones, funding, products, or even scandals. Our platform is built atop four open protocols. These protocols include Ethereum, Augur, 0x Protocol, and MakerDAO. Augur is utilized as a decentralized oracle service for market resolution. By using 0x Protocol we enable off-chain order books reducing gas costs and enabling scalability. By incorporating DAI (a collateralized stable coin) we take away volatility from our own holdings and in the future will be offering traders the ability to trade with a stable asset through the entire experience. What is Flux (Protocol)? What is FLUX token?

Today we're taking a look at a GitOps CD tool for Kubernetes called Flux. Flux is great for keeping our cluster state in Git and it allows automated synchronization between our our Git repository and our Kubernetes cluster. Git becomes our source of truth for our environment. We can use Git for auditing our environment and also use feature branching to test our cluster resources against a test environment.

Ever wondered how to leverage the GitOps Flux tool for your business? In this article, we discuss the various efficiencies, benefits, and use cases of Flux.

You can manage secrets with GitOps and you should. Using GitOps you can do it securely, you can do it at scale, and it’s automated!
