GitOps, in its simplest form, is the principle of defining all of your resources in Git, a free and open source distributed version control system. It refers to the role of git for deployments, the frequency of deployments, and the human-to-machine-interaction.

To gain a balanced understanding of GitOps, it is important to look at both its benefits but also current critiques and suggested improvements.

It is an open CNCF community project with the goal of providing organizations and individuals with the resources to implement GitOps.

It is worth mentioning that GitOps is still in its very early stages, with lots of experimentation and research to be done to create a cohesive understanding.
