+## What it is
+
+GitOps is a set of best practices based on [shared principles](https://opengitops.dev/), applied to a workflow that depends on software agents that enable automation to reconcile a declared system state or configuration in a git repository.
+These software agents and practices are used to execute a cohesive workflow that leverages a source control system like Git as the “single source of truth” and extends this practice to applications, infrastructure, and operational procedures.
+
+## Problem it addresses
+
+Existing processes for infrastructure configuration management can face challenges such as configuration drift, failed deployments, relying on a system's previous state for success, missing documentation, or unknown development history.
+Adopting a GitOps workflow can help alleviate these issues, among several others.
+
+## How it helps
+
+GitOps is a paradigm that can be applied to a workflow to help manage an application and cloud system infrastructure. It enables organizations several advantages such as better coordination, transparency, stability, and reliability of a system.
+Operating in a close loop ensures the current live state of a system matches against the desired target state, specified in the git repository.
