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