The article presents OSTree as a Git-like filesystem for atomic Linux deployments and introduces Bootc as a container-based method to deploy complete OS images. It covers OSTree concepts (immutable system with overlays, commits, and efficient distribution), integration with rpm-ostree for package management, and the Bootc workflow for deploying and upgrading OS images via OCI containers, including CI/CD and GitOps-style updates.
