Deploy the Kubernetes Connector via GitOps

Deploy and manage the Kubernetes Connector (konnector-bundle Helm chart) across multiple Kubernetes clusters using a complete GitOps setup. Implement this repository structure to use either ArgoCD or Flux CD as your primary controller.

GitOps controller comparison

• ArgoCD: Recommended if you want a visual UI for managing deployments, need real-time drift detection, require built-in rollback with history, and prefer a GUI-based workflow.
• Flux CD: Recommended if you want native Helm release management (helm install), need Helm hooks support, and prefer a pure CLI/GitOps workflow.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have the following:

• A Kubernetes cluster with kubectl configured.
• The helm CLI installed for pulling charts from OCI registries
• The flux CLI and/or argocd CLI installed.
• A Git repository accessible from within the cluster.
• Access to the konnector-bundle OCI registry.
