This session will cover the architectural improvements and new features of Jenkins X v3. We'll dive into the key areas that have undergone major development. GitOps: a better approach to installation and upgrades leveraging Helmfile, using an in-cluster operator to apply desired state stored in Git. Secrets: out of the box integration with external secret management solutions such as Google + Amazon cloud services Infrastructure: decoupled infrastructure management using Terraform UX: hosted dashboard to link your pull request logs along with a local Octant UI for deeper cluster visualisations. Cloud Native Pipelines: now using vanilla Tekton pipelines with no abstraction layer. Along with Lighthouse to handle both in repo and shared pipeline definitions we now have a clean, extendable way to describe pipelines. Health: health checks and insight via Grafana
