Question #: 14
Topic #: 4

You want to deploy an application using GitOps. Which of the following steps should be included in the deployment process?

ARunning a script in CI to deploy the application.

BSkipping the deployment process and directly running the application code.

CManually copying the application code to the production server.

DCommitting the deployment configuration to a Git repository or similar State Store.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

In GitOps, deployments are driven by committing declarative configuration into a Git repository (the State Store). From there, agents reconcile the actual environment to match the desired state, making deployments reproducible and auditable.

''To deploy in GitOps, commit the declarative configuration into version control. The reconciler ensures the runtime environment converges to the declared state.''

Thus, the correct answer is D.

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like option A might be part of the CI/CD process, but it doesn't seem very GitOps-focused.

I think option D is definitely a key step since GitOps relies on version control for deployment.
