> DevSecOps GitOps Pipeline Automation

## Overview
PipelineForge represents a full DevSecOps GitOps pipeline. It automates container builds, integrates Trivy for security vulnerability scanning, and manages deployments to Kubernetes. Key achievements include optimizing container images from 1.1GB to 8MB (99.3% reduction) using distroless multi-stage builds. The Kubernetes setup features HPA, NetworkPolicies, zero-downtime rolling updates, and was load-tested with k6 for 500 virtual users.
