Architecture 10

For this assignment, pick any of the following technologies / practices and write a 2 pg summary in the following format->

1) Exec Summary (1/4 page)

2) Overview (1/2 page)

3) Deep Dive (1 page)

4) Conclusion (1/4 page)

Hint- write the executive summary last (after conclusion) and the overview & conclusion should somehow articulate why an IT Architect cares about the technology or practice in question... in some cases that answer is simply "be aware of emerging tech" (like Blockchain), in other cases it is more "modern development tooling" like in the case of DevOps and related toolchains.

2) Opensource

3) OpenStack

4) DevOps (and DevOps Toolchains)

5) Salt, Chef, Ansible, Helm  (pick one... all automation technologies)
