Floodgate - podejście GitOps dla Spinnakera

It's time for another CodiLime Tech Talk!

Spinnaker is a very powerful and friendly (once you get to know it better) CD system, but its complexity can put people off. Infrastructural complexity is taken care of with many pre-configured “distributions”, but what about the complexity of managed app configurations? We believe we have a solution for that as well.

GitOps has become a buzzword, and for good reason: it really helps manage systems at scale. After testing it in Spinnaker, we’re more than convinced that it’s the way to go.

In this talk, we’re going to introduce the general public to our approach to simplified Spinnaker management using Floodgate, our open-source tool as well as Spinnaker-provided components, such as Sponnet.

Specifically, we’ll be covering:

* our idea and PoC of managed configuration for Spinnaker

* a comparison with already-existing solutions and why we think we need “another competing standard”

* our plans for upstream contributions to Spinnaker

* how we all can improve the state of things.

Meet our speakers:
