OpenShift in Fedora Infrastructure
Background
We want to stand up at least a proof of concept OpenShift instance in Fedora infrastucture. There's a number of reasons for this, inclusing (but not limited to):
- A chance to stay on the leading edge of tech
- Ability to deploy things that are expecting to be deployed in OpenShift
- Allow us to change/improve our deployment workflow
- Save resources by moving applications into pods instead of vm's.
- Help dogfood software our primary sponsor makes and give them feedback.
- Reduce required sysadmin/ops cycles for application deployment/updating.
Outstanding questions
Deploy questions
- OpenShift Origin or OpenShift Container platform?
- Install to vms or bare metal?
- Atomic host or Normal?
- RHEL or Fedora?
- How many: controllers, nodes, routers?
- Storage? NFS? gluster?
- Databases: in or outside?
- Setup things with ansible? what level? just the OpenShift? Any/all apps? Changing things like replicants?
- Keep proxy network haproxy -> openshift apps?
Policy Questions
- All rpms?
- Trigger builds from git? Just some branches?
- Does prod vs stg vs dev distrinction exist anymore?
- Do freezes exist anymore?
- whats the workflow?
git commit upstream -> build -> test -> deploy (slowly) ? git commits upstream on release branch -> build -> test -> deploy (slowly)? new rpm package -> build -> test -> deploy (slowly)?
- CI? when and where?
- "alive tests" ?
- what monitoring do we do on instances/apps?
Initial apps
- what initial apps would be good to move to it?
- I'd be interested in looking at blockerbugs or taskotron as candidates to move to openshift (tflink)
