In progress thoughts about introducing Conduit into our clusters.
All our Kubernetes manifests are defined in Git and applied to the cluster via automated deployment pipelines. The standard procedure to deploy is to introduce a change to this git repo (these changes are themselves automated), which is then applied to the k8s cluster.
Conduit is a departure from this because it encourages an injection process which relies on an out of repo dependency (other than kubernetes itself). The objects that end up in Kubernetes are NOT defined in Git, and are a function of our own manifests plus the version of Conduit that happens to be installed locally (in the CD environment). This makes people nervous.
