Summary: Cloud native architectural improvements
Key: WHIMSY-268
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WHIMSY-268
Project: Whimsy
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: General
Reporter: Matt Sicker
Coming from a development background in devops and cloud native applications, I
find it somewhat difficult to go back to working on projects with huge amounts
of variability between environments (production and development in particular)
and non-trivial manual steps to perform set up or deployment. What I'd like to
propose here is a cloud native modernization project that would consist of the
following:
* Containerize the various services running as Docker images or similar tech.
* Create Kubernetes configurations (possibly using Helm if needed) for running
the suite of apps and services for at least running in minikube for local
development. In the past, I may have suggested writing a docker-compose
configuration, but that syntax diverged into Docker Swarm which has been
overtaken by Kubernetes over time as it is.
This could be an interesting use case for trying out Jenkins X, too, though
that would be more relevant to overhauling both development and production
usage, and I'd assume we would need to coordinate with Infra for running
Kubernetes in production.
