Engineering Infrastructure Realm

Realm for the engineering infrastructure team to deploy shared and team-specific infrastructure resources that aren’t appropriate for the saas realms.

Overview

This realm is for the engineering infrastructure team to deploy shared and team-specific infrastructure resources that aren’t appropriate for the saas realms.

Future Iteration with Engineering Infrastructure Handbook Pages

The Engineering Infrastructure Environments handbook page is the current SSOT for environments. As the WIP initiative to iterate on our company-wide infrastructure standards evolves, the Engineering Infrastructure pages will be refactored incrementally as the standards are documented, implemented, and changes to environments take place.

Access requests

To request access to a group, please see group access request tutorial.

Realm labels and tags

The global labels/tags and realm labels/tags should be applied to each resource.

Realm Groups

Each infrastructure group has a shared GCP project and/or AWS account for group members.

If a group has not been implemented yet, please contact the realm owner for assistance. After a group is implemented, a separate handbook page is created with usage documentation.
