GitOps is becoming the standard of doing continuous deployments. Define your application state in Git, automatically update and change the state when pull requests are merged. This means that deployments happens continuously, usually multiple times a day. There’s a good CI and CD pipeline that ensures that the changes are ready to be shipped. However, if the system would malfunction you might want to annotate your dashboards using Github commits. This makes it easy to track which changes were made, when they were made and what impact they had. Grafana 7.0 introduces a simple Github integration that creates annotations for your charts. Let’s take a look how we can use these annotations combined with RAM/CPU and request success rates dashboards to monitor your CD for an application.
