Keynote: After Six Years, Is GitOps Boring?
summary
Claim: GitOps reaches 100% adoption in surveys, with Flux and Argo as primary agents, and platforms move automation into a contract between ops and app teams. Demonstrations show Argo and Flux working on 10,000+ clusters and integrations load models from Hugging Face as signed OCI containers. Proposal: combine reconciliation with generative systems so an LLM can produce IaC and configs while GitOps enforces correctness—think LLM-generated IaC with validation and right‑back to desired state.
