GitOps Deployment Patterns
Learn GitOps repository patterns - monorepo vs polyrepo strategies, environment promotion, and branch-based workflows
Lab Overview
This lab explores different repository patterns for organizing GitOps configurations. Understanding these patterns is essential for the CGOA exam and for designing scalable GitOps implementations.
Topics covered: 1. Monorepo Pattern: Single repository for all applications and environments 2. Polyrepo Pattern: Separate repositories for applications and infrastructure 3. Environment Promotion: Promoting changes through dev, staging, production 4. Branch Strategies: Using branches vs directories for environment management
These patterns form the foundation of GitOps architecture decisions.
