How it works?
Flux CD is a GitOps controller for Kubernetes that keeps a cluster’s desired state in sync with declarative configuration stored in Git. It is typically used by platform and DevOps teams to standardize application and infrastructure delivery, make changes auditable through pull requests, and reduce configuration drift across environments such as dev, staging, and production.
Flux runs as a set of controllers inside the cluster, continuously reconciling resources based on what is committed to version control. This model supports repeatable deployment patterns and safer rollbacks while keeping configuration changes traceable. For related practices, see Platform Engineering.
- Continuous reconciliation of Kubernetes manifests and Helm releases from Git
- Drift detection and automated remediation to maintain desired state
- Git-based promotion and rollback workflows across multiple environments
- Multi-cluster and multi-tenant setups using repository and namespace boundaries
- Integration with CI pipelines for validation before changes are applied
GitOps is a modern approach to software deployment and infrastructure management, leveraging Git as the core tool for version control and collaboration. It automates the deployment process by using Git repositories as the source of truth for both infrastructure and application code. This methodology enhances team collaboration, ensures traceability of changes, and streamlines continuous integration and delivery pipelines. By integrating code review and automated testing, GitOps also boosts security and stability, making it an efficient and scalable solution for managing complex systems.
- Utilizes Git as a single source of truth for infrastructure and application deployment.
- Automates deployment pipelines, ensuring consistent and reliable updates.
- Enhances collaboration and visibility, with every change tracked and peer-reviewed.
- Improves disaster recovery through version control, allowing for easy rollbacks to stable states.
- Simplifies compliance and auditing processes, as all changes are logged and traceable.
- Facilitates continuous delivery and integration, enabling agile development practices.
- Increases security and stability by integrating code review and automated testing into deployment processes.
Flux CD is a GitOps controller for Kubernetes that continuously reconciles cluster state to match declarative configuration stored in Git. It is used to standardize deployments, improve auditability, and reduce configuration drift across environments and clusters.
- Continuous reconciliation keeps Kubernetes resources aligned with the desired state defined in Git, without relying on push-based CI deploy steps.
- Drift detection and self-healing re-applies approved configuration when manual changes, failed rollouts, or node events cause divergence.
- Supports common packaging workflows with native Kustomize and Helm integration for app, platform, and environment overlays.
- Pull-based delivery improves security posture by limiting the need for CI systems to hold long-lived cluster credentials.
- Multi-cluster management scales by running the same controllers per cluster and using repo structure plus overlays to express per-cluster differences.
- Multi-tenancy patterns enable separation of duties using namespaces, scoped RBAC, and distinct Git sources per team or workload boundary.
- Image automation can track new image tags and create commits or pull requests to promote changes through environments in a controlled, reviewable way.
- Git-native audit trails improve traceability for approvals, rollbacks, and incident forensics by tying runtime changes to commits.
- Progressive delivery is supported via Flagger integration for canary and blue-green rollouts driven by metrics and automated promotion criteria.
- Works well with secret management approaches such as SOPS, keeping encrypted secrets in Git while minimizing plaintext exposure.
Flux CD is a strong fit for teams that want a consistent, controller-driven deployment model and clear separation between build and release. It does require disciplined repository design and operational familiarity with reconciliation, sources, and controller logs for troubleshooting.
Common alternatives include Argo CD, Jenkins X, and Spinnaker. For GitOps principles and recommended practices, see OpenGitOps.
Our experience with Flux CD helped us implement repeatable GitOps operating models for Kubernetes teams, with clear repo conventions, safe promotion paths, and day-2 runbooks that made deployments more auditable and drift-resistant in real environments.
Some of the things we did include:
- Bootstrapped Flux CD on Kubernetes across multiple clusters, standardizing Git repository structure, environments, and tenant boundaries for platform teams.
- Designed GitOps promotion workflows (dev → staging → prod) using pull requests, required reviews, and automated policy checks to reduce change risk.
- Implemented Helm and Kustomize-based delivery patterns with Flux reconciliation, including predictable rollbacks and controlled overrides per environment.
- Integrated Flux CD with Terraform to align infrastructure provisioning with Git-managed platform configuration and cluster add-ons.
- Built CI-to-GitOps pipelines where CI updates manifests (image tags, chart versions, values) and Flux applies changes, keeping CI focused on build/test and Git as the deployment source of truth.
- Hardened Flux controllers with RBAC scoping, namespace isolation, network policies, and audit-friendly change history to support governance and compliance needs.
- Implemented secrets workflows for GitOps (SOPS/age, Sealed Secrets), including key management, rotation procedures, and least-privilege access for controllers.
- Set up observability for reconciliation health and drift using Prometheus, including alerts for stalled sources, failed kustomizations, and repeated remediation loops.
- Enabled progressive delivery by combining Flux CD with Argo Rollouts for canary/blue-green releases and automated rollback triggers.
- Planned HA/DR approaches for GitOps operations, including bootstrap recovery, source redundancy, and safe re-sync procedures after cluster rebuilds.
This experience helped us accumulate significant knowledge across multiple use-cases—from greenfield platform builds to migrations from imperative pipelines—and enables us to deliver high-quality Flux CD setups that are secure, observable, and maintainable for client teams.
Some of the things we can help you do with Flux CD include:
- Assess your current Kubernetes delivery workflow and GitOps readiness, then deliver a prioritized review report with risks, gaps, and quick wins.
- Define a Flux CD adoption roadmap covering repo structure, environment promotion, branching strategy, and operational ownership.
- Implement and configure Flux controllers (source, kustomize/helm, image automation) with repeatable patterns for multi-cluster and multi-tenant setups.
- Design Git repositories and declarative configuration standards to improve auditability, reduce drift, and speed up safe rollbacks.
- Establish security and compliance guardrails using RBAC, secret management practices, policy controls, and least-privilege access to Git and clusters.
- Integrate GitOps workflows with CI/CD pipelines, Terraform-managed infrastructure, and environment bootstrapping automation.
- Improve reliability with drift detection/remediation, progressive delivery patterns, and observability hooks for faster incident response.
- Optimize cost and performance by tuning reconciliation intervals, reducing noisy syncs, and aligning deployments with autoscaling and resource governance.
- Provide hands-on enablement through workshops, runbooks, and on-call-ready operational training for platform and DevOps teams.
