Frankdev.io Infrastructure Deployment

[fbarrento]

As a Site Owner and HomeLab enthusiast, I want to ensure that the Frankdev.io website is deployed in both staging and production environments to facilitate seamless feature testing and provide users with access to the latest and greatest content and features.

Acceptance Criteria:

Site Owner's Perspective:

• As a Site Administrator, I want the Frankdev.io website to be available in two distinct environments: staging and production.
• I should be able to initiate the deployment process easily for both staging and production environments.
• It is important that the staging environment reflects the latest changes and features to facilitate comprehensive testing.
• The production environment should only be updated after successful testing in the staging environment.
• I should receive notifications or status updates regarding the deployment progress for both environments.

2. DevOps Engineer's Perspective:

• As a DevOps Engineer, I need to design and implement an infrastructure-as-code solution for both staging and production environments.
• The infrastructure should be scalable, reliable, and ensure high availability to handle user traffic effectively.
• Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipelines should be established to automate the deployment process for new features.
• There should be proper versioning and rollback mechanisms in place to handle any unforeseen issues during deployment.
• Monitoring tools should be integrated to provide insights into the health and performance of the infrastructure.

3. Developer's Perspective:

As a Developer, I should be able to easily push new features and changes to the staging environment for testing purposes.
The deployment process to staging should be seamless, allowing me to iterate quickly during development.
Clear documentation on the deployment process and environment configurations should be available for reference.
Once testing in the staging environment is successful, I should be able to trigger the deployment to the production environment confidently.
In case of any issues, there should be a straightforward process for rolling back changes in the production environment.

Definition of Done:

• Frankdev.io is successfully deployed in both staging and production environments.
• CI/CD pipelines are established and functional for automated deployments.
• Monitoring and alerting systems are in place to ensure the health and performance of the infrastructure.
• Site Administrator receives notifications and status updates during the deployment process.
• Developers can easily push changes to staging and trigger deployments to production when ready.
• Documentation is available and up-to-date for all aspects of the deployment process and environment configurations.
