summary
CoreCard rewrites 20-year-old payment software to Kubernetes microservices, implements GitOps with Flux and Terraform, and removes secrets from source using External Secrets + Azure Key Vault. Flux enables reuse of existing Helm charts and kustomize overlays so deployments reconcile automatically; release flow moves from branch builds to overlay updates and Flux reconciliation. Results: build time drops from 15 to 3 minutes, deployments rise to ~20/day (peak 90), cloud spend falls ~12% while clusters double. flux picks up Helm charts out of the box
