  • How to apply security at the source using GitOps

    There are books (The Path to GitOps, GitOps and Kubernetes or GitOps Cloud-native Continuous Deployment), whitepapers, and more blog posts than we can manage to count but let us elaborate on the GitOps purpose by taking a quick look on how things evolved in the last few years.
  • Automation assistants: GitOps tools in comparison
    28 projects | dev.to | 12 Aug 2021
    Websites such as awesome-gitops, which was launched by Weaveworks, or gitops.tech, which was put together by INNOQ employees, provide an introductory overview of the available tools. When you take a closer look, you will see that the listed tools can be used to perform a wide variety of tasks related to implementing GitOps, and of course they also differ from one another in terms of their adoption, maturity, and how actively they are maintained. This article identifies three categories from the various use cases: Tools for Kubernetes, supplementary tools, and tools close to infrastructure. In addition, we compiled a table that summarizes the tools and their properties. The tables also contain various Git and GitHub-based metrics (current as of February 2021) that allow you to better assess their adoption, maturity, and how actively they are maintained.
  • The Decline of Heroku
    4 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 12 Apr 2021
    huge fan of k8s. drop what you're doing & use a cross-system object-storage/"apiserver" & control-loops to automate everything; embrace desired state management & thank me latter. but, Heroku &al have a lot of value left.

    there's just not that many folk trying to tame deploys on k8s via gitops. flux2 is the rage, it's all over the alpha geek's efforts[1], but it's usually used by someone carefully authoring a fairly complex Helm file, then building out a significant Flux2 HelmRelease object (ex: [2]).

    there's a bunch of other tools[3], & i'm frankly not familiar enough. but this idea of having a bunch of source that can deploy itself, simply, is still extremely rare even among the alpha-geek #gitops types. i'm sure some of these tools better match the simplicity of the Heroku model, corresponding branches to environments, which makes so so much sense, but so far i feel like such attempts are still basically unknown.

    heroku's really simmered it down to something that made extremely natural sense. huge props to that. too too much of this effort had to go into creating buildpacks & supporting language environments very very carefully very actively, that ability to stealth-containerize an app & not even notice is so much of the special sauce that makes this a hard, hard & eternal problem (because langauges/envs keep changing). there's still a lot of ease of use to Heroku that's potentially will be underrated and/or lost by the oncoming generations. i have high respect for how operateable Heroku is.
