Observability Driven Automation: Beyond GitOps with Keptn
summary
Keptn evaluates SLOs/SLIs from Prometheus, Dynatrace or Datadog and gates GitOps promotion by running pre-deploy checks (including error budget assessment), kicking ArgoCD to apply manifests, executing k6 tests as post-deploy validation, and computing a score to auto-promote or block. A demo updates the Potato Head app to v0.20, captures SLIs, shows scores like 100 (pass), 50 or 70 (fail), and prevents unsafe promotion, with options for manual approval or automated remediation.
