Talkat KubeCon + CloudNativeCon North America 2021 · on Thursday, 2021-10-14· at 11:55· Concourse Hall 153 ABC + Online·
summary
Flux v2 is a collection of controllers with stable APIs that multiplex sources, sinks and updates and aim for GA once end-to-end test coverage and standardized controller metrics and protocols are solid. It already supports Kustomize, Helm, Prometheus, SOPS, GitHub and GitLab and uses kstatus for readiness. A demonstrated image update automation flow shows ImageRepository → ImagePolicy → ImageUpdate committing a change that moves pod-info from 5.0.0 to 5.2.1. Work remains on stronger RBAC-by-namespace restrictions and extensible source types.
