To advance the points outlined in the previous email back in early December
and the continued need to finalize the deployment of a public demo server
on the ASF infrastructure along with finalizing and refining Courage's
containerization project amongst others, I'm pulling together a group of
DevOps stakeholders that will be meeting regularly and spearheading some of
these topics and sharing its progress with the Fineract and Mifos
communities.
The first meeting of this group will be Wednesday February 13 at 1400GMT
via GoToTraining - https://attendee.gototraining.com/r/1868033268927296770
Notes will be shared after the meeting for those who can't join.
Our goal is to discuss and share lessons learned from from the current
cloud deployments of Fineract CN and to discuss the outstanding tasks
related to identify clear owners and next steps for the list of outstanding
items in:
1) Finalize Aleks' initial work of deploying Fineract CN demo server on
Apache infrastructure
2) Wrap and refine up Courage's work on containerization during GSOC.
3) Discuss and extend the ongoing work Isaac is leading to simplify the
process for deploying Fineract CN [5]
4) Consolidate ongoing discussion into a wiki page at
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FINERACT/Deploying+Fineract+CN+in+a+Cloud+Environment
5) Work towards publishing of scripts to make Fineract CN deployable in
different cloud environments
Cheers,
Ed
