Welcome to OKE - GitOps Workshop

You are welcome to a live workshop hosted by Oracle in collaboration with OQVA, that will shade light on how to use Oracle managed Kubernetes with the cutting edge GitOps approach.

GitOps is a new paradigm of implementing CD (continuous delivery) for cloud-native applications. This approach focuses on operating cloud infrastructure using tools that developers are already familiar with.

Before you begin, here are some prerequisite:

1. GitHub account, if you already have a GitHub account you can skip this step, if not please create one here: https://github.com/join

2. Make sure you have an Oracle OCI account. Sign in page: https://www.oracle.com/cloud/sign-in.html

If you don't have a cloud account yet, you can request an Oracle Cloud Free Tier via this link

For Existing Accounts only : 
- These steps apply only if you are using your current OCI Account, and you are not under root compartment
- please make sure you have permissions for:

- 1a. Creating Virtual Cloud Network and Subnets.
- 1b. Creating Compute Instance + Shapes + Images permission.
- 1c. Creating OKE Cluster with all the permissions.
- 1d. Make sure your OKE has permissions to create Networks and Storage.
