Introduction and Agenda8:44
Introduce the basics of gitops, devops, and devsecops and outline a mario game case study deployed on Azure Kubernetes Service and AWS with Terraform, Argo CD, and GitHub Actions.

What is GitOps?5:08
GitOps uses git as the single source of truth to automate continuous delivery, including integration, deployment, and security, with pull-based deployment and infrastructure managed via version control.

Hands On: Generate Key Pair and gather VPC details before running Terraform Code5:58
Execute prerequisites before Terraform: locate the VPC id in us-west-2, generate and download an AWS key pair, and update the VPC and key_name variables in the Terraform files.
Hands On: Run AWS Terraform Code to Create AWS Infrastructure8:00
Deploy AWS infrastructure with Terraform, provisioning an EC2 instance, security group, and a dockerized sonarQube setup, then access the sonarQube dashboard.
