Declarative deployment #123
Description
Currently we deploy things imperatively: running scripts that modify state such that it takes desired shape. This works, but it is problematic because we can't revert changes, can't ensure state is exactly what we expect it to be and use tools designed for infrastructure creation to do so.
What we want instead is declarative deployments:
- Likely some kind of template, in case of k8s it would be Helm chart with some variables
- Then instantiation of the template with variables filled in, environment variables and secrets configured in it
- When developer wants to instantiate something, they just send a pull request, when pull request is merged, something like Argo CD will apply necessary changes to make sure deployment matches what was defined in the repository exactly
- Destruction then is as simple as reverting a pull request
For this to work we need to pick a tool for declarative deployment, key storage solution and have some templates (ideally with readme) that the rest of the team can work with somewhat autonomously.
