SHOW: 70

SHOW NOTES:

SHOW TOPICS:

Topic 1 -
Welcome to the show. Tell us about your background both at Weave and your involvement in the CNCF.

Topic 2 - Weave really started evangelizing this concept of \u201cGitOps\u201d. For anyone that isn\u2019t familiar, walk us through the basics building blocks. \xa0

Topic 3 - Git becomes the CMDB (single source of truth, single source for compliance). Developers push code (Git > CI/CD). CI/CD system builds containers and deploys to Kubernetes. What assumptions does this model make about the underlying infrastructure operations?\xa0

Topic 4 - Let\u2019s talk about the separation of interests between the CI system and the CD system and how this impacts security.\xa0

Topic 5 - Let\u2019s talk about the role of Operators in a GitOps environment. Operators (today) tend to be more focused on stateful applications, so how does this link into developer code?\xa0
