This talk is about GitOps concepts and how they relate to your applications and infrastructure code. It will introduce you to GitOps Kubernetes multi-cluster management and tooling for sophisticated "kubectl apply." Describe GitOps' ways of working with existing CI/CD tools, "push/pull approaches," and when you might keep it simple.

Key topics:

- The difference between Flux and Argo, their core components and toolchains, and problems they can solve.
- Leveraging these tools besides the standard "Continuous Deployment" (CD) role with Azure DevOps or GitHub.
- The ecosystem for Continuous Integration, deployment orchestration, and chains of events.
- Adopting Argo with its components like GitOps-Engine, CD, Events, Workflows, Rollouts, and Core.
- Application-focus of Argo CD and its most significant selling points, such as UI and ecosystem.
- Adopting Flux and its architecture of Kubernetes controllers working together with core GitOps Toolkit(gotk).
- External components for Flux to help reconcile Terraform resources in the GitOps way.
- How GitSecOps concepts fit in with existing tools and what "hardening" needs to be done for Flux and Argo.
- Finding a balance between complexity and benefits when adopting GitOps.
- Bootstrapping your own private AI LLM with project data you need for great results.

Join this talk to Learn about GitOps concepts for applications and infrastructure, understand Argo and Flux usage in real projects, and how to look at them from Developer, DevOps, and Product evolution perspectives.
