Enterprise deployment patterns reference implementation
Blog post from Octopus Deploy
Matthew Casperson's blog post, dated January 6, 2023, outlines the enterprise patterns reference implementation, a Docker Compose-based application stack designed to demonstrate practical deployment patterns using a sample Octopus instance. This initiative, part of a pilot program aimed at supporting platform engineering teams, incorporates various tools such as WSL2, Git, Docker, Terraform, and others to configure and manage the application stack. The reference implementation provides a demonstration of managing spaces per business unit or application and instances per environment, with the Default space configured to manage regional teams and deploy projects across different environments. This setup is intended for experimentation and feedback, not for production use, as existing Service Level Agreements (SLAs) do not cover it. The post encourages DevOps teams to explore Infrastructure as Code (IaC) approaches using the provided Terraform configuration files and invites feedback on GitHub to refine the enterprise patterns further.
