Automation assistants: GitOps tools in comparison
A newer competitor is Fleet, which is developed by Rancher. Its special ability is that it is able to manage not just one, but a fleet of clusters. PipeCD is similarly young and has an even broader focus. Like Fleet, it promises the ability to manage multiple Kubernetes clusters, and it also offers a UI. In addition, it can handle Terraform and some services from the major cloud providers.
