Flux Project is an open-source continuous delivery (CD) toolset designed to automate the deployment and release management of applications. According to the vendor, it aims to provide a GitOps approach to CD, where the desired state of the system is defined in Git repositories and automatically synchronized with the running infrastructure. Flux Project is suitable for organizations of all sizes, from small startups to large enterprises. It is used by professionals in various fields, including DevOps and Site Reliability Engineers, Kubernetes Administrators, Software Developers, and IT Operations Teams.

## Key Features

**Flux Notifications GA (TBA)**: According to the vendor, Flux Notifications allows users to receive notifications about changes and events in the Flux project. Notifications can be configured to be sent via various channels such as email, Slack, or other messaging platforms. It aims to help users stay informed about the status of deployments and changes in their Kubernetes clusters.

**Flux Image Automation GA (TBA)**: According to the vendor, Flux Image Automation enables automated updates to container images used in Kubernetes deployments. Users can define policies and rules for automatically updating container images based on triggers such as new image versions or vulnerability fixes. It aims to simplify the process of keeping applications up-to-date with the latest container images.

**Flux S3-compatible APIs GA (TBA)**: According to the vendor, Flux S3-compatible APIs provide S3-compatible APIs for managing and interacting with object storage buckets in Flux. This allows users to store and retrieve artifacts, configuration files, and other resources in S3-compatible object storage. It aims to enable seamless integration with existing S3-compatible storage solutions.

**Flux OCI artifacts GA (TBA)**: According to the vendor, Flux OCI artifacts support the use of OCI artifacts for managing Kubernetes configuration. Users can package and distribute Kubernetes manifests and other configuration files as OCI artifacts. It provides the ability to pull and reconcile OCI artifacts from container registries, simplifying the deployment process.

**Request for comments**: According to the vendor, the Request for Comments feature provides a consistent and controlled path for substantial changes to enter Flux. It allows the Flux community to discuss and provide feedback on proposed changes and features. The feature aims to help in keeping track of the Flux project's current direction and future plans, providing transparency and inclusivity in the decision-making process.


The Flux Project, or just Flux, is an open and extensible continuous delivery solution for Kubernetes available free under an Apache 2.0 license. Flux and Flagger deploy apps with canaries, feature flags, and A/B rollouts. Flux enables application deployment (CD) and (with the help of Flagger) progressive delivery (PD) through automatic reconciliation.

CircleCI is a software delivery engine from the company of the same name in San Francisco, that helps teams ship software faster, offering their platform for Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD). Ultimately, the solution helps to map every source of change for software teams, so they can accelerate innovation and growth.

Australian company Octopus Deploy offers their eponymous automated deployment and release management software that integrates with the user's preferred CI server and adds deployment & ops automation capabilities. Octopus Deploy enables developers, release managers, and operations folks to bring all automation into a single place. The vendor states that by reusing configuration variables, environment definition, API keys, connection strings, permissions, service principals, and automation logic, teams work together from Octopus Deploy.
