What Now?

That’s it. Now you know the purpose of the environments and how they fit into GitOps principles. We’re yet to explore environments with the Manual promotion. As you’ll see soon, the only significant difference between the Auto and Manual promotions is in actors.

By now, you should be familiar with what’s coming next.

How to free up the resources?

If you’re planning to move on to the next lesson right away, there are no cleanup actions to do. Just continue on to the next chapter.

However, if you created a cluster only for the purpose of the exercises we executed, please destroy it. We’ll start the next, and each other chapter from scratch as a way to save you from running your cluster longer than necessary and pay more than needed to your hosting vendor. If you created the cluster or installed Jenkins X using one of the Gists from the beginning of this chapter, you’ll find the instructions on how to destroy the cluster or uninstall everything at the bottom.

If you did choose to destroy the cluster or to uninstall Jenkins X, please remove the repositories we created as well as the local files. You can use the commands that follow for that.

⚠️ Please replace [...] with your GitHub user before executing the commands that follow.
