Kubernetes GitOps with Rancher Continuous Delivery

As the number of Kubernetes clusters under management increases, application owners and cluster operators need a programmatic way to approach cluster management. Rancher CD solves this by creating a git driven engine for applying cluster changes. Declarative code is stored in a git repo. As changes are committed to the repo, linked clusters are automatically updated. Gitops keeps all your clusters consistent, version controlled, and reduces the administrative burden as you scale.

DevOps Customer Success - How to increase service availability, accelerate innovation, and improve pipeline performance

By industrializing software delivery, DevOps has the potential to transform IT in the same way that Henry Ford transformed manufacturing Back in 1913, Henry Ford started a manufacturing revolution. On December 1, the first automotive assembly line heralded the advent of mass production and reduced the time required to build a Model T to only 2 ½ hours. That allowed Ford to slash manufacturing costs as well as the price of his iconic automobile.
