Does it support advanced deployment strategies?

Yes, it includes configurations for progressive delivery, such as Canary rollouts with Argo Rollouts, allowing for controlled traffic shifting and automated testing.

How does it handle sensitive information like API keys?

It implements GitOps best practices for secret management using either the External Secrets Operator or Bitnami Sealed Secrets to ensure sensitive data remains encrypted or externalized.

What GitOps tools does this skill support?

This skill provides comprehensive guidance and implementation patterns for both ArgoCD and Flux CD, the two leading CNCF projects for GitOps.

Can I use this for multi-cluster environments?

Yes, the skill includes repository structures and patterns specifically designed for managing multiple clusters and environments across staging and production.
