You may look at multi tenant deployment of fluxcd at https://github.com/fluxcd/flux2-multi-tenancy where you can have shared infrastructure repo to bootstrap flux with terraform (if you wish) and then a repo per team to manage k8s resources.

Flux vs ArgoCD
2 projects | dev.to | 7 Oct 2021

We are exploring this GitOps trend at Playtomic. We have two k8s clusters running using Flux and ArgoCD. We have a multi-tenancy setup, that is, one repo for the cluster itself, one repo for every application we deploy in the cluster. Flux and ArgoCD image updaters are in place.

I’m reading above that you weren’t aware of sealed-secrets. So I guess that you are not familiar with ExternalSecrets secrets neither. Very solid project

I do not recommend vault if you are not experienced. It is a heavy infra to manage. I suggest looking into https://github.com/external-secrets/kubernetes-external-secrets and selecting the tool offered by your cloud providers.

This is where things like the vault agent sidecar or projects like external secrets come in and allow you to inject / sync your secrets backend and your Kubernetes workloads :)

Depending on what platform you are on, you could use the AWS SDK or a tool like external-secrets (for Kubernetes).

We don't keep anything sensitive inside of Helm charts. We use AWS Secrets Manager and external-secrets
