DESCRIPTION:Modern distributed architectures are built from diverse compone
 nts\, yielding potentially complex interactions and dependencies. Validate
 d Patterns enhance typical reference architectures or established use case
 s with automation and rigorous validation. While reference architectures p
 rovide a conceptual framework for building a given solution\, Validated Pa
 tterns offer a deployable software artifact that automates and optimizes t
 he framework\, ensuring consistent\, repeatable\, extensible\, and efficie
 nt deployments. \n\nThe Red Hat Validated Patterns Program is an open sour
 ce project providing repositories of Validated Patterns for use by the gre
 ater community. Since patterns are open source\, anyone can easily use\, f
 ork\, modify and contribute to patterns.  In this workshop participants wi
 ll be immersed in foundational knowledge for creating\, using and extendin
 g a GitOps pattern with the Validated Patterns framework. In this workshop
  participants will:\n\n- Learn GitOps fundamentals\n- Deploy a Validated P
 attern\n- Extend an existing Validated Pattern\n\nWith many patterns avail
 able to choose from\, including both vertical and horizontal use cases spa
 nning hybrid and multicloud\, Artificial Intelligence\, Modern Virtualizat
 ion\, Automation\, and Digital Sovereignty\, participants be poised to use
  existing patterns\, and learn how to fork and modify patterns for their o
 wn use.
