|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Synthetic Monitoring |
| ||||
| Health Check | |||||
| System Monitoring | |||||
| Application Insight Monitoring | Look inside the code to determine performance and support Production problems insdie the code. | Dynatrace |
| ||
| DOS and DDOS Mitigation | There is some argument that going true cloud no longer requires this. I'm not convinced. | Akamai |
| ||
| Customer Caching | Take load off of your system. | Akamai |
| ||
| Orchestration of Containers | Unified view and control of containers. |
| |||
| Software Defined Network | |||||
| Virtualization Cloud Provider | No point in running the hardware and base OS yourself. Instead use a provider that will take care of auto-scaling hardware, providing IP addresses, storage and a network infrastructure. Bonus points for instituted caching and monitoring. ++ Bonus points for an proven CICD system. Some of the Bonus items you can implement yourself and are documented higher in this stack. |
| |||
| Environment Configurator | If you have lots of integration points, centralizing one place to configure those small differences suddenly becomes cost effective. | Remove infrastructure dependency. | |||
| Continous Testing | |||||
| Continuous Deployment | When build completes auto deploy and hook up. |
| |||
| Continuous Build | Building Application Virtualization from Recipes. Think entire ecosystem (not just code) is built from recipes. |
| |||
| Source Control for Container Receipt | I currently have a gap here of how this would work. | ||||
| Source Control for Code |
| ||||
| Packer | |||||
| External Log Aggregation | Remove infrastructure dependency. | ||||
| Caching System | |||||
| Messaging System | Guarantee delivery and integrity of key transactions across systems. | Depends on your specific messaging needs. Will break this up later. |
| ||
| Application Virtualization | Microservices concept of running ephemeral containers at the focusing on escapulating a single immutable application. |
| Docker |
| |
| Building Operating Virtualization from Recipe | Build system from a recipe. |
| |||
| Optimized Operating System for Containers | Newish concept of lightweight transactionally updated operating system. Solaris had the transactional aspect a whle back. |
| |||
| Distributed Operating System for Containers | Similar in concept to what Hadoop technology solves for databases. |
| |||
| Operating Virtualization | I would put this to a specific use case and it can greatly reduce costs (explain here). | LXD (LXC) | |||
| Vagrant |
