+Since the database that the services use for their operation is external to docker, the deployment of the services can be split in several docker compose files. This allows to create an initial docker compose deployment that implement the basic gitops capabilities, and then leverage this initial deployment to put the rest of the services online with a CI/CD pipeline.
 # Services
+## Gitops
+
+The base deployment includes [gitea](https://gitea.io/en-us/) and Woodpecker CI (https://woodpecker-ci.org/). Gitea provides a plethora of services that we will leverage in the lab:

+1. Source code repository
+2. Wiki
+3. Authentication
+4. Webhooks for CI/CD
