summary
City of Ottawa builds a hybrid Kubernetes platform with fully automated CI/CD pipelines using Flux, Open Policy Agent, Linkerd, Prometheus and NetApp Trident for persistent storage, managing about ten clusters and supporting ~400 applications with a 300-person IT org and ~100 developers. Migration pattern converts Perl and Java/Tomcat apps into containers via GitLab pipelines and image-driven Flux deployments. First public app goes live with zero downtime, governance and training remain active priorities while automation rolls toward full stack coverage next year.
