poor visibility and communication between development and business teams. It also automates the manual steps that slow down application delivery. The purpose of continuous delivery is to deploy new code the “code” for the infrastructure. Thus, Infrastructure as code lets administrators leave behind manual processes and avoid the drudgery of entering fields into a web form. Instead, they use configuration applies here. With IaC, you no longer need to hire at a “person per node” ratio. Removing the need for manual configuration frees up administrators to do other things. IaC gives you vastly more speed because

different Git branches for each environment (more on this later) and you also introduce further manual steps just for release promotion. 3. “We only have one environment.” Great for small companies keeps the GitOps promise (of having in the cluster what is in the Git repo) but of course, requires manual intervention. 3. You can have a combination where the GitOps tool itself both syncs a previous look and approve these pull requests. This means that practicing GitOps involves at least some manual steps for handling these Pull requests. In theory, one could practice Continuous Deployment

Another factor is managing config drifts. As a modern application, there will be requirements to apply manual hotfixes or small changes that can lead to config drifts. With GitOps, users can: Easily identify changes are not properly documented. Streamlined, automated pipelines GitOps translates all the manual, complicated infrastructure management tasks to a streamlined, automated pipeline. This declarative

The process involves managing and provisioning infrastructure resources using code rather than manual processes or interactive configuration tools. Ultimately this means codifying your workload by defining
