Description: The gated workflow is a structured process that involves managing tasks and services in a containerized environment, where approvals or verifications are required at multiple stages before an action is completed. This approach allows development and operations teams to implement changes in a controlled and secure manner, ensuring that each step of the process is reviewed and validated. Gates in this workflow act as checkpoints that determine whether a change can proceed to the next phase, helping to minimize errors and maintain system integrity. This type of workflow is especially relevant in production environments, where stability and reliability are crucial. By integrating automation and orchestration tools, teams can efficiently manage application deployment, service scaling, and container status monitoring, all while adhering to an approval process that ensures the quality and security of operations.
