architecture documentation and design before we start coding and deploying

[piwi3910]

Could we settle and document on the design of the infra

Requirements of the dev and build teams before we start creating ansible scripts and modules.
We want to do this right the first time and not free ride.
so we need consensus with the build teams that it is what they need.

Do we already have a wiki or confluence setup?
How do we make sure consensus is reached and the design for the infra is approved.
How do we assign tasks to individual contributors
how do we manage rights and credentials..
I saw some questions and comments regarding IP ranges and stuff. All valid questions, that need documenting before we deploy.

and so many other items
Happy to discuss and help

We already have other issues on this repo that are talking about some of these things. What I will say is for the ansible portion, we are following a similar model to the CentOS infra ansible structure, where you can clone the repo on a control node, and run the playbooks, including a requirements.yml for roles as necessary. There are some documentation for the ansible portion.

The myself and the rest of leadership will be discussing these things when the time comes and we'll address this issue and the others that are related like #8 and #11.

could you point me to this Ansible documentation you are referencing. I don't see anything in the wiki?

[nazunalika]

Right now it is laid out in a README. It's imported in the wiki now too.

I will also recommend that you view the other issues in this repo as well as the other organizational repos on these topics.

+1 for design of the infra and a wiki setup.
