This document discusses using TYPO3 CMS in the cloud to save developer time. It covers using TYPO3 in cloud platforms like Microsoft Azure, common infrastructure problems, and how cloud principles of being orchestrated, consistent, and deterministic can help. The document advocates for automating infrastructure deployment to ensure environments are identical from development to production. This allows developers to focus on code instead of configuration. Finally, it discusses do-it-yourself options and potential future integrations with cloud platforms.

14. What is Microsoft Azure (or some
other cloud)?
14
It’s IaaS + PaaSIt’s hybrid readyIt’s open and flexibleIt’s always up, always onIt’s economical and scalableIt’s everywhere
32. Orchestrated Cloud
• “Planned to produce a desired result”
• Resolve dependencies and build code
• Provision servers, storage, network, launch and configure services
• Manage data
32
33. Orchestrated Cloud
• Guarantee high availability for all services
• Guarantee disaster recovery for all services
• For every developer and tester, as well as production

Databases: Galera/MariaDB, MongoDB, PostgreSQL
Search: ElasticSearch, Solr
Cache: Redis Cluster
Queue: RabbitMQ
1 Application runtimes are split into
separate Virtual Machines, and can
scale horizontally to any number.
2 Databases and other services are on
a separate cluster. This increases the
maximum size and capacity for the
Database tier, and is suitable for
extremely demanding or high traffic
sites.

39. Consistent Cloud
• Use the same tools to deploy, on every environment
• Know from deploying to (@dev / @test / @stage / @UAT ) that deploying
to @production will work.
• Consistent infrastructure, real data
39
42. Deterministic Cloud
• or a given Git repository (hash), exactly the same application code and
infrastructure should be deployed, every time it is pushed to any
environment.

43. Benefits of
• One deployment and server structure that is:
• Simple to execute
• Testable
• Repeatable
• Reversible
