Doing GitOps for multi-cloud using Crossplane & Flux2

on YouTube ↗34m

" summary

Bootstraps a cluster with Flux2 bootstraps repo and cluster then uses Flux2 helm CRDs to install Crossplane provisions Cloud SQL and RDS from manifests; configures AWS and GCP provider packages and providerConfigs with secrets, pushes manifests to a GitHub repo, and sees a Cloud SQL instance on GCP and an RDS instance on AWS created and later destroyed when manifests are removed. Connection details appear as connection secrets written into Kubernetes, and reconciliation runs automatically.
