Level Unlocked: GitOps to the Edge and Infrastructure Provisioning

Cloud native GitOps tools, such as ArgoCD and Flux, enable zero-touch deployment of infrastructure and applications at the edge. The talk outlines the usage of GitOps in association with ClusterAPI for infrastructure provisioning and KubeEdge for service propagation to the edge.

• Introduction to cloud native GitHub stores such as ArgoCD and Flux
• Real use cases of GitOps in infrastructure provisioning using ClusterAPI and FlexCD integration
• Pushing applications towards the edge using KubeEdge and ArgoCD
• Importance of declarative, automatic, and reliable fundamentals in cloud native deployment

Kubernetes has been the centerpiece of the cloud native landscape, leading to the diversification of the technology ecosystem. Over time, multiple tools were built around it to extend its functionalities. The end user community, consisting of more than 145 vendor-neutral organizations, uses cloud native to build and distribute their services. GitOps tools enable the automation and standardization of CI/CD operations, making the developer experience and delivery of applications more efficient. By leveraging the power of GitOps, infrastructure provisioning and application propagation towards the edge can be achieved with zero-touch deployment.

ithin its 7 years of existence, Kubernetes has been the centerpiece of the cloud native landscape, elevating a pluggable system that led to the diversification of the technology ecosystem. As a result, multiple areas have developed in the industry, galvanizing solutions for components that introduce standardization, guidelines, and interoperability of the tools. To innovate the developer experience and delivery of the application, the community focused on restructuring and modernizing the CI/CD operations. This talk will outline how cloud native GitOps tools, such as ArgoCD and Flux, unlock the zero-touch deployment of infrastructure and applications at the edge. Attendees will acquire an understanding of GitOps usage in association with ClusterAPI for infrastructure provisioning and KubeEdge for the service propagation to the edge.
