Cobalt
This project combines and shares best practices for building production ready cloud native managed service solutions. Cobalt's infrastructure turn-key starter templates are based on real world engagements with enterprise customers.
Cobalt puts a focus on infrastructure scalability, security, automated testing and deployment repeatability and most importantly, developer experience. The Project's intended audience is for developers. Feedback and suggestions are encouraged through issue requests. We welcome contributions across any one of the major cloud providers.
Cobalt is a joint collaboration with project Bedrock.
Getting Started
The steps for getting started depends on your high level goals. Select the correct set of instructions based on your overall use case for Cobalt.
- Getting Started - Cobalt Developer: Start here if you want to contribute to the Cobalt repository to create new advocated pattern templates or pipelines.
- Getting Started - Advocated Pattern Owner: Start here if you want to maintain advocated pattern templates from Cobalt templates within your organization. Typically this will be the first step in leveraging Cobalt at your organization.
- Getting Started - Application Developer: Start here if your organization already uses Cobalt and you want to deploy an advocated pattern to host your application.
Relationship to Bedrock
Cobalt hosts reusable Terraform modules to scaffold managed container services like ACI and Application Services as a couple of examples. Bedrock targets Kubernetes-based container orchestration workloads while following a GitOps devops flow. Cobalt templates reference Terraform modules like virtual networks, traffic manager, etc.
