Zero to GitOps: Automating RAG Workloads with Backstage Templates
summary
A single template automates GitOps repo scaffolding, Argo CD manifests, and Helm chart deployments on Red Hat Developer Hub (Backstage) running on OpenShift, wiring GitLab/GitHub, Argo CD, Helm, llama‑stack, PGVector, Streamlit and NVIDIA GPUs into a pipeline that populates skeleton files via JSON schema and Nunjucks, creates the repo, registers the component in the software catalog, and lets Argo CD redeploy on changes, shrinking multi‑week setup to less than five minutes with GPU support.
