The Role of GitOps in IT Strategy
summary
Argues that GitOps becomes a core IT strategy by turning every change into a versioned repo entry, using a CI pipeline plus a GitOps controller (examples: Flux, Argo) to perform declarative desired state deployments and continuous reconciliation. Gives a concrete mechanism: CI builds artifacts, pushes tested manifests to a state repo, a controller watches repos and reconciles live systems; Flux image automation example shows automated image bumps. Claims this enables hands‑off operations and scalable, auditable compliance.
