GitOps, an Elegant Tool for Hybrid Cloud Kubernetes
summary
Demonstrates GitOps with Argo CD managing templated Kubernetes manifests (Helm, Kustomize) across three clusters (US East1, East2, Oregon) and CloudFlare routing; shows a live deployment of Pac‑Man plus a three‑node MongoDB cluster, deleting a deployment and letting Argo CD self‑heal (about 16s). Compares tools (Flux, kubectl‑apply), recommends private repos, least‑privilege deployment agents, and pruning/webhook sync; overlays let per‑cluster replica and image changes and the demo succeeds.
