Discussion

Personas

  • ‘application developer’ could be one right? someone who wants to build server applications
  • ‘home/small business’ where they are constrained to one server/limited resources?
  • ‘enterprise datacenter’ where they want to roll out many server instances and automate.
  • A mid-level Microsoft administrator who does not have time for a steep learning curve.

Motivation

  • Keep IT team within budget.
  • Minimize late-night phone calls.

Goals

  • Clean, secure, and manageable deployment of multiple server applications to a single server.
  • Unified management of server resources.
  • Ability to understand resource usage across server inventory to identify underutilized resources.
  • Ability to easily deploy apps to underutilized resources.

Frustrations

  • Home-grown scripts for deploying apps that have been around forever that have mysterious voodoo power. Difficult to reproduce application deployments consistently.
  • Proliferation of various management console interfaces to have to manage.

Questions / Discussion Points

Who are our users?

  • "I think the idea of focusing on target users is important here. Will having a GUI for servers help us grow Fedora Server use? Is it where we should put effort over other things that would grow it *more*? Who are the users, and, short of market research, do we have the collective expertise to make a reasonable case?" --mattdm
