I am using this solution for a trial for government adoption, in my home lab, and for a cloud trial. It ensures a smooth adoption of GitOps & Flux for Cloud ISV.
GitOps adoption has improved security, automated upgrades, and streamlined compliant CI/CD
What is our primary use case?
How has it helped my organization?
We've been able to automate all of the upgrades in Staging, build pipelines for automatic (attended) promotion, and improve our security posture while increasing visibility. The FIPS validation is required by some of our customers.
What is most valuable?
The Flux UI, semver automation, and a simplified FluxInstance allow bootstrapping with a protected main branch.
What needs improvement?
There needs to be more visibility on MCP and a streamlined guide to adopt with multiple LLM providers.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using this solution for 1 month.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I have been a Flux open-source user for many years.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
If you cannot afford the price, talk to Control Plane and negotiate. They may be able to offer you a deal if you can provide your own support.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
I have considered driving CI/CD through a pipeline with various vendor solutions.
What other advice do I have?
Flux is the best CD solution for Kubernetes, and Flux Enterprise makes it enterprise-grade. With CVE Remediation SLA and FIPS Encryption Algorithm validated, this can be the solution to your enterprise compliance needs.
Flux CD - Enterprise Distribution Review
As Flux power users and early adopters (with Kops in 2017) we welcome this version and distribution.
Everything works as advertised and comes packaged in a sustainable way to meet our delivery and security needs.
The documentation is solid, everything being copy past-able and functional.
By far, we find that the best thing about this is the fact that it is a self serving solution that can be now consumed straight from the AWS infrastructure with not need for any third party interaction.
Also this package comes with the Flux Operator which replaces the need for manual updates for Flux. So there's no need to go out and bring that from a third party either.
No cons have been found so far.
