Core Concepts
What is GitOpsHQ?
Understand the GitOpsHQ platform — its purpose, architecture, and key concepts.
GitOpsHQ is a unified GitOps control plane for managing Kubernetes deployments across organizations, projects, tenants, and environments. Instead of juggling disconnected tools, you get one platform for Helm, Kustomize, raw manifests, releases, promotions, rollbacks, and governance policies—all driven from Git and coordinated through a consistent object model.
Whether you operate a single cluster or a large fleet, GitOpsHQ connects your clusters with agents, centralizes configuration and secrets boundaries, and makes promotion between environments a first-class workflow rather than a custom script.
Why teams choose GitOpsHQ:
- Git as source of truth — Declarative desired state lives in version control; the platform reconciles and tracks what changed, when, and by whom.
- Multi-tenant by design — Organizations, projects, and tenants map cleanly to how real teams structure access and isolation.
- Agent-based cluster connectivity — Clusters register and stay reachable for inventory, delivery, and operations without exposing the API server broadly.
- Governance-first approach — Approvals, policy, API keys, and audit trails are built in—not bolted on after the fact.
