Solidblocks

Solidblocks is a library of reusable components for infrastructure operation, automation and developer experience. It consists of several components, each covering a different infrastructure automation aspects.

Design Goals

  • Easy Reuse Each component should easily be embeddable into any setup without requiring any specific project setup or structure
  • Composable Components be combinable with each other using defined interfaces reducing the need for configuration
  • Tested Components should be tested, in particular covering potential failure cases
  • Resilience Components should be immune against temporary outages, especially in regard to networking and storage
  • Logging Components should give helpful feedback for during normal operation and especially when errors occur
