Interested in automated zero effort deployments into Kubernetes - 100s of times per day? Then you should consider using GitOps!!
GitOps defines a better approach to performing Continuous Delivery in the context of a Kubernetes cluster. It does so by promoting Git as the single source of truth for declarative infrastructure and workloads.
This Course will get you started with GitOps and will bring you quickly up to speed with the basic features and processes involved in a GitOps workflow. First, we introduce you to GitOps and the many benefits that it provides when it comes to automating deployments. The Course then provides you with a validated hands-on lab that will walk you through the process of setting up and using GitOps. Finally, you're provided with a multichoice exam to assess the GitOps knowledge the Course has provided you with.
