Hi, We have decided to use hybrid approach of option2 and option3 as below.
Common hieradata are added to puppet base repository [1] with .pmtignore file. Default platform hieradata are added to product specific puppet repositories [2] with .pmtignore file . Platform specific hieradata data are added to product platform artifacts repositories [3][4].
