On the road to feature parity with Flux v1, Image Update Automation is a big milestone for Flux v2. The hard at work Flux team has recently released this feature as alpha. During this session, Leigh Capili, DX Engineer at Weaveworks, will walk us through & demo configuring container image scanning and deployment rollouts with Flux v2.

For a container image you can configure Flux to:
- scan the container registry and fetch the image tags
- select the latest tag based on a semver range
- replace the tag in Kubernetes manifests (YAML format)
- checkout a branch, commit and push the changes to the remote Git repository
- apply the changes in-cluster and rollout the container image

For production environments, this feature allows you to automatically deploy application patches (CVEs and bug fixes), and keep a record of all deployments in Git history. For staging environments, this features allow you to deploy the latest prerelease of an application, without having to manually edit its deployment manifests in Git.

Resources:
📍 Flux v2 Documentation: https://toolkit.fluxcd.io/
📍 Automate Image Updates to Git Guide: https://toolkit.fluxcd.io/guides/image-update/
📍 Flux v2 roadmap: https://toolkit.fluxcd.io/roadmap/

🚨 Note to our Flux community that Flux v2 is in development and Flux v1 is in maintenance mode. These talks and upcoming guides will give you the most up-to-date info and steps to migrate once we reach feature parity and start the migration process. We are dedicated to the smoothest experience possible for our Flux community, so please join us if you'd like early access and to give us feedback for the migration process.

We are really excited by the improvements and want to take this opportunity to show you what Flux 2 is all about, walk you through the guides and get your feedback!
