Kubernetes controller for managing Flux CD lifecycle
Top 83.5% on SourcePulse
The Flux Operator is a Kubernetes controller designed to automate the management of CNCF Flux CD installations and their lifecycle. It targets platform engineers and GitOps practitioners seeking to simplify Flux deployment, configuration, and scaling across multiple clusters, offering advanced features like self-service environments and AI-assisted GitOps interactions.
How It Works
The operator leverages Kubernetes Custom Resource Definitions (CRDs) to declaratively manage Flux instances. It automates the installation, configuration, and upgrades of Flux components, abstracting away the complexities of bootstrapping and ongoing maintenance. Key advantages include simplified multi-tenancy, sharding, scaling, and a streamlined transition to OCI artifacts and S3-compatible storage. The ResourceSet API allows defining application standards as deployable units, integrating with CI/CD for ephemeral environment testing.
