从原始的定义上看，云原生技术有利于各组织在公有云、私有云和混合云等新型动态环境中，构建和运行可弹性扩展的应用。云原生的代表技术包括容器、服务网格、微服务、不可变基础设施和声明式API。
GitOps is a set of principles for operating and managing software systems. These principles are derived from modern software operations, but are also rooted in pre-existing and widely adopted best practices.
GitOps 的期望状态：
- Declarative: A system managed by GitOps must have its desired state expressed declaratively.
- Versioned and Immutable: Desired state is stored in a way that enforces immutability, versioning and retains a complete version history.
- Pulled Automatically: Software agents automatically pull the desired state declarations from the source.
- Continuously Reconciled: Software agents continuously observe actual system state and attempt to apply the desired state.
