How are we currently running Magento

Virtual servers

Managed by Puppet/Ansible

Nginx, (varnish), PHP5.6/PHP7, MySQL/MariaDB-Galera cluster, Memcached, Redis, Solr, ElasticSearch



Shortcomings

Scaling up/down takes manual effort & time

PHP/MySQL/Solr/ElasticSearch versions/plugins defined by server, not by project/code and have to be communicated separately

Adding new technology (e.g. npm/grunt) is complex


Wishful thinking...

Solves build-ship-run workflow, integrates in CI/CD, DevOps & self-service

Handles the standard software plattform problems: scaling, hitless deployment, monitoring, backup, etc

Open standards: 100% open source, backed by big community

No lock-in, free to choose any provider, works on any infrastructure

Extensible with API


Docker

Lightweight container runtime

Package code, runtime, plugins, libraries

Helps you to use 12-Factor-App pattern (explicit entrypoint, port, volume configurations, see https://12factor.net)

Automatically built, quickly started, one-time use

From container to production ?


Kubernetes

Container orchestrator:

How many of a kind should be running ?

On which IP/port/machine are they ?

How do they find each other ?

What happens when a container/machine running them disappears ?

Scaling, load balancing, rolling deployments

Container orchestration


OpenShift

How to get the application in the container ?

Web-GUI, CLI client, REST-API

OpenShift


APPUiO

Managed Docker, Kubernetes, OpenShift from Puzzle ITC (Dev) and VSHN (Ops)

Flavours: Big shared plattform in the cloud, private plattform in the cloud or on-premises

Hosted in Switzerland (ISO/FINMA-certified) or whereever you want (AWS, Azure, etc)

Community for Developers and Operations, Dev & Ops = DevOps

Free monthly half-day training TechLabs

Starting at CHF 40/mt in Switzerland


Why?

You have full control over the container contents → no more old versions by the hosting provider

You control the build, deploy process from the GUI/CLI/API

Plattform takes care of seamless deployment, SSL, load balancing, scaling, system updates, monitoring, backups, hardware, storage, network, etc

You don't need to handle Docker, Kubernetes, OpenShift internals if you don't want to


Sounds complex ?

Lots of moving parts ?

Uh-oh new technology ?
