Notes
- Unconference Session at Samvera Connect 2019
- Notes from the session: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1279KEoBHYkk_Z8qUk2Jku0YLvvsjrS6cbWODj123HdU/edit?usp=sharing
- Wanted to identify in the session what we could collaborate on and share
- Identified that we should share Dockerfiles, deployment/maintenance scripts, and documentation
- First action item is to draft a charter for this Working Group
- Tom Johnson provided a good example of a charter in use (the example was Samvera Code of Conduct Working Group Charter)
- Drafting the Charter
- Please note that Members of this WG will look to fully draft the charter following the meeting
- Defining Best Practices
- Should we strive to define a set of best practices for configuration?
- We should offer a recommendation, but not be prescriptive
- Working Groups have deliverables and a timeframe
- Documented practices might not be the deliverable
- Pointing out a series of practices within the community might be helpful
- For those who have no adopted the Samvera stack, perhaps we could provide an assessment of the current deployment
- Information which is helpful (at a generic level) might be best
- Who is our primary audience for the deliverable of this working group?
- This is likely to be an ongoing discussion
- Providing guidelines for new adopters is a great side-effect
- However, it might not be a target deliverable
- DockerHub Organization
- https://hub.docker.com/u/samvera
- This already exists
- Are we in agreement that we would be using Dockerfiles?
- Dockerfiles and an example Docker Compose structure which spins up and prepares a Hyrax (in a Vagrant Box) would be a good deliverable
- What of other container orchestration tools? Helm Chart? Kubernetes?
- Difficult to determine, some on the call have limited experience with these
- Other infrastructure-as-code examples
- Puppet
- Chef
- Ansible
- Terraform
- CloudFormation
- Would like to present deliverables at Samvera Connect 2020
- Is that reasonable?
- All agree
- Code4Lib Breakout will be scheduled by Aaron
- Communications and Meeting Tools
- Bluejeans is acceptable
- All members are asked to please review and edit the charter
- Michael has volunteered to serve as the Chair for this Working Group
- Aaron has volunteered to serve as Co-Chair
