GitOps in the Wild: How We Run FluxCD at Raiffeisen Bank

You've read the FluxCD docs and seen the demos... but what does it actually look like to run GitOps in production?

This talk shares our FluxCD implementation at Raiffeisen Bank Romania, covering the patterns and tooling we built around Flux to make GitOps work at scale. You'll see how we handle the practical challenges that don't fit neatly into getting-started guides:
- Environment promotion: How we use branch-based workflows to move changes from dev to production while maintaining audit trails
- Application structure: How we organize our FluxCD manifests for team ownership
- Standardization without rigidity: Using Cookiecutter and Copier to generate consistent repository structures that teams can customize
- Staying up to date: How Renovate keeps our Flux configs, Helm charts, container images and even repository templates up-to-date
