The history of software development could be written as constant acceleration. GitOps is not a revolution, but rather a system to support more frequent releases that drive modern software development.
The central idea of GitOps is that operational changes happen as soon as a commit 📄 is made to a repository 🏦.
GitOps empowers your developers to do the work of IT and operations, making changes to operational configuration to better host services.
Again, this is enabled by having a Git repository 🏦 as a source of truth for all operation changes.
