Patterns quick start overview
This quickstart helps you get up and running with Validated Patterns — whether you are creating a new pattern or deploying an existing one.
Create a new pattern — Use patternizer to bootstrap a Git repository into a ready-to-use Validated Pattern with all required scaffolding.
Deploy an existing pattern — Deploy the Multicloud GitOps pattern to explore how the framework works in practice.
Validated Patterns can be deployed using either the OpenShift-based Validated Patterns framework or the Ansible GitOps Framework (AGOF). The OpenShift-based Validated Patterns framework is the most common method for deploying applications and infrastructure on the OpenShift Container Platform. It offers a set of predefined configurations and patterns that follow best practices and are validated by Red Hat.
