Q1Domain Verified
In the context of GitOps and Argo CD, what is the primary mechanism by which Argo CD reconciles the desired state defined in Git with the actual state of the Kubernetes cluster?
A webhook-driven system that is immediately notified of Git repository commits.
A continuous polling loop that queries the Kubernetes API for changes.
A manual intervention process requiring a GitOps operator to trigger deployments.
A declarative reconciliation process where Argo CD continuously compares the Git state with the cluster state and applies necessary changes.
Q2Domain Verified
When implementing GitOps with Argo CD, what is the significance of the "Application" CRD (Custom Resource Definition)?
It is used to manage user access and permissions within the Argo CD UI.
It represents a collection of Git repositories and Kubernetes clusters that Argo CD should manage.
It defines the desired state of individual Kubernetes resources like Deployments and Services.
It acts as a top-level abstraction in Argo CD, defining a set of Kubernetes manifests to be deployed to a specific cluster and sync policy.
Q3Domain Verified
Consider a scenario where a developer commits a change to a Kubernetes manifest in a Git repository that Argo CD is tracking. What is the most efficient and idiomatic GitOps approach for Argo CD to detect and deploy this change?
The developer must manually trigger a sync operation from the Argo CD UI after committing.
Argo CD will only update the cluster state when a full GitOps pipeline is triggered manually.
Argo CD will automatically detect the change within 5 minutes due to its default polling interval.
A Git webhook configured to notify Argo CD upon commit will initiate an immediate sync.
