Configuration Drift: Understanding, Avoiding, Managing and Resolving in Kubernetes

If you work with Kubernetes, you know that any number of issues can pose a serious threat to the stability and security of your deployments. One that's subtly damaging is configuration drift, which occurs when the actual state of how your system is set up — its configuration — strays from the way you defined. Configuration drift in Kubernetes can happen when people make changes manually, systems aren't synchronized properly or monitoring falls short.
