practices are needed in several areas that are not currently covered by the existing tools. In this guide, we will describe several gaps and issues in current GitOps tools, and the biggest challenges when tools are great for observing the content of a cluster on a technical level but fail miserably in monitoring the business metrics of each deployment. Auditing is problematic despite having all information company/department deployments to all stakeholders who need an easy and understandable dashboard for monitoring deployments along with their associated metrics. On the other hand, anybody should be able

OBSERVABILITY Observability from a GitOps perspective is the ability to constantly have access to monitoring the actual state present in the cluster and the ability to compare it to what was desired. GitOps rollout will happen, the ability to control traffic flow to the new version, and access to external monitoring tool- based metrics that verify if the new rollout is successful or not. Figure 4 BLUE-GREEN technologies, GitOps provides a set of best practices that unify deployment, management, and monitoring for containerized clusters and applications.
