Why Are Organizations Adopting GitOps for Continuous Deployment in 2022?
To develop infrastructure as code, a DevOps engineer will most likely produce files (such as YAML) locally and put the code in a git repository, which offers him version control for IaC and allows other team members to retrieve and participate. However, while making changes to the code, we may not have a clear protocol in place – such as pull requests, code reviews, or collaboration to discuss modifications made by other team members. It’s even difficult to figure out who did what. Even automated tests to run the codes in repositories are lacking. All of these errors, as well as others, eventually end up in the development environment.
