GitOps for E3 Test

e3-gitops

This repository is managed using GitOps principles.

What is GitOps?

GitOps is a way of implementing Continuous Deployment for cloud native applications. It uses Git as a single source of truth for declarative infrastructure and applications.

Use Cases

1. Configuration Management: GitOps allows you to manage system and application configurations through Git repositories.
2. Continuous Deployment: GitOps can automate deployments by monitoring the Git repository and applying changes when the main branch is updated.
3. Disaster Recovery: In case of a system failure, GitOps can help restore the system to the last known state stored in the Git repository.
4. Rollbacks: If a deployment fails or causes issues, GitOps allows you to easily rollback to a previous state using Git's history.
5. Audit Logs: Since all changes are tracked in Git, you have a complete audit trail of what changes were made, when, and by whom.
