ArgoCD - GitOps

GitOps

The term GitOps refers to the practice of deploying a pipeline that connects your repository (GitLab) to your Kubernetes cluster in order to do Infrastructure as Code (or Policy as Code, Network as Code, etc.). Whenever a change is made in the repository, it is then sent to a pipeline like ArgoCD, which applies the change to the Kubernetes cluster. In the CI/CD concept, GitOps is concerned only with CD (Continuous Delivery), but it remains distinct from traditional CI/CD and should not be confused with it.
