🚀 Enterprise GitOps Project on Minikube | DevOps with Patil

Excited to share my latest Enterprise GitOps Project on Minikube, designed to simulate a real-world production-grade DevOps environment using modern cloud-native tools and practices.

🔧 Technologies Used

✅ Minikube (Local Kubernetes Cluster)
✅ Docker & Docker Hub
✅ GitHub & GitHub Actions
✅ Helm Charts
✅ ArgoCD (GitOps)
✅ NGINX Ingress Controller
✅ Prometheus Monitoring
✅ Grafana Dashboards
✅ Metrics Server
✅ Horizontal Pod Autoscaler (HPA)

📌 Project Workflow

🔹 Developer pushes code to GitHub

🔹 GitHub Actions automatically:

• Builds Docker Image
• Performs Security Scan
• Pushes Image to Docker Hub
• Updates Helm Chart Image Tag

🔹 ArgoCD continuously monitors GitHub Repository

🔹 On detecting changes, ArgoCD automatically deploys the latest version to Minikube

🔹 NGINX Ingress exposes the application

🔹 HPA automatically scales pods based on CPU utilization

🔹 Prometheus collects metrics from Kubernetes Cluster

🔹 Grafana visualizes cluster and application performance through dashboards

🎯 Key Features

✔ Fully Automated CI/CD Pipeline
✔ GitOps-Based Deployment Strategy
✔ Containerized Application Deployment
✔ Auto Scaling with HPA
✔ Monitoring & Observability
✔ Production-Like Kubernetes Environment
✔ Infrastructure as Code Approach
