Platform Management

This section covers deploying and managing Taubyte cloud infrastructure in production. You'll learn about deployment strategies, CI/CD pipelines, environment management, and operational best practices.

Infrastructure Options

Taubyte provides flexible deployment options:

Manual Deployment

Complete control over infrastructure setup:

  • Configure nodes individually
  • Set up networking and security
  • Manage certificates and domains
  • Fine-tune performance settings

Automated Deployment (Spore Drive)

Streamlined deployment with code:

  • Infrastructure as Code approach
  • Multi-cloud support
  • Automated configuration
  • Simplified management

Production Considerations

Planning Your Infrastructure

  • Node Distribution: Geographic placement for performance
  • Resource Allocation: CPU, memory, and storage planning
  • Network Architecture: Security and connectivity design
  • Scalability: Growth and capacity planning

Security and Compliance

  • Access Control: Authentication and authorization
  • Network Security: Firewalls and encrypted communication
  • Certificate Management: Automatic HTTPS with Let's Encrypt
  • Audit Logging: Compliance and monitoring

Operational Excellence

  • Monitoring: Health checks and performance metrics
  • Backup and Recovery: Data protection strategies
  • Updates and Maintenance: Platform and security updates
  • Incident Response: Troubleshooting and resolution

CI/CD and Deployment

Git-Native Workflows

  • Branch-Based Environments: Separate dev, staging, and production
  • Automatic Builds: Triggered by Git pushes
  • Deployment Pipelines: Controlled promotion through environments
  • Rollback Capabilities: Quick recovery from issues

Environment Management

  • Development: Local testing with Dream
  • Staging: Pre-production testing environment
  • Production: Live applications serving users
  • Feature Branches: Isolated testing of new features

Getting Started

For New Deployments

  1. Plan your infrastructure requirements and architecture
  2. Choose deployment method: Manual for control, Spore Drive for automation
  3. Set up monitoring and operational procedures
  4. Deploy applications using CI/CD pipelines

For Existing Applications

  1. Assessment: Review current setup and requirements
  2. Migration Planning: Plan the transition to production
  3. Testing: Validate functionality in staging environment
  4. Go-Live: Deploy to production with monitoring
