Pulled Automatically
The third GitOps principle: software agents automatically pull the desired state declarations from the source.
In more detail
A CI job pushing manifests into a cluster breaks it. A webhook that only tells the agent to look now does not, because the agent still pulls.
Related terms
- software agent — A program running in or beside a runtime that pulls the desired state and reconciles the system to it.
- webhook — An HTTP request a provider sends to an address you registered, to tell you an event happened, instead of you polling for it.
