What is Flux in the Kubernetes ecosystem?
- AA set of Kubernetes controllers that deliver applications from Git using GitOps
- BA container runtime that schedules and runs Pods on Kubernetes nodes
- CA CI service that builds images and runs tests when code is pushed
- DA service mesh that manages traffic and mTLS between Kubernetes services
Why this is the answer
Flux is a GitOps CD toolkit — controllers that reconcile a cluster to Git. Not a container runtime (that's containerd), not a CI build service, and not a service mesh.
