Introduction
The goal of this MVP is to develop a provisioning tool for web developers that automates the process of setting up a new Ubuntu 20.04 server to run web applications. The tool should be compatible with Linode and Digital Ocean platforms and built using Ruby and Rails.
Objectives
Enable zero-touch provisioning, requiring no manual work on the server from the user
Support auto-updates for software packages and application dependencies based on a provision.yml file
Apply security updates automatically
Auto backup of database and log rotation
Configure and setup firewall
Target Users
Web developers
Platforms
Linode
Digital Ocean
Key Features
Zero-touch provisioning
Auto updates for software packages and application dependencies based on provision.yml file
Automatic application of security updates
Automatic database backups
Log rotation
Firewall configuration and setup
User Interaction
Users will specify their needs in a declarative way using a provision.yml file
Security Requirements
The tool must configure and set up a firewall on the server
Performance and Compliance
The tool should ensure optimal server performance by applying security updates automatically, backing up databases, and managing log rotation
Timeline
4 weeks for MVP release
Success Metrics
Successful provisioning of a server without user intervention
Automatic updates of software packages and application dependencies
Application of security updates
Automated database backups and log rotation
Firewall configuration and setup
With these requirements in mind, the development team can focus on creating a provisioning tool MVP that meets the needs of web developers and automates server provisioning for web applications.
