OpenShift as Cattle - GitOps for Clusters
Abstract:
Maintaining an Configuring an OpenShift cluster can be a daunting task. Maintaining multiple and keeping them aligned with each other even more so. When you want to quickly (re-)deploy clusters it becomes a must to have all configuration as code, but duplicating that for each cluster can lead to configuration drift between clusters. In this talk we will look at how the HCS OpenShift Install project organizes and structures Kustomize trees for your clusters, inheriting from a single, versioned, base. This allows OpenShift administrators to easily roll out configuration changes to all clusters, but in an orderly, controlled method.
