Welcome to the EKS GitOps challenge
Get hands-on experience with GitOps and Canary Deployments (“Progressive Delivery”)
This is a self-paced online workshop where you will get hands-on experience with GitOps and Progressive Delivery using Amazon EKS, eksctl, AWS App Mesh, Flux and Flagger.

- You have completed the hands-on when you enter:
$ kubectl -n demo get canary
and get the result:podinfo Succeeded
If we can come to your city, we will bring you this T-shirt. (So don't forget to fill out the form!)
