    Description

      Goal: 

      As an administrator, I would like to deploy OpenShift 4 on Alibaba Cloud leveraging best-practices, installer provisioned infrastructure.

      Problem:

      Customers would like to be able to easily and quickly deploy OpenShift 4 on other cloud providers rather than being locked into a select few.

      Why is this important: 

      • This will enable more customers to make the move to OCP 4 by providing deployment support on other popular cloud providers.
      • IPI deployment provides a simplified, best-practices OpenShift 4 deployment for customers by leveraging installer provisioned infrastructure objects and nodes enabling faster cluster bring-up time and significantly configurations errors.
      • Automated installation process provides the framework for integrating into our CI system.

      Dependencies (internal and external):

      • RHCOS support
        • image publishing pipeline
      • Machine API
      • Image Registry Operator
      • Ingress
      • Kube Controller Manager
      • Cloud Credential Operator

      Prioritized epics + deliverables (in scope / not in scope):

      • Terraform infrastructure config work
      • Integration with Alibaba Cloud DNS and Load Balancer services
      • Support for Alibaba Cloud Storage
      • OpenShift CI system running on Alibaba Cloud infrastructure

       

      Estimate (XS, S, M, L, XL, XXL): 

       

      Previous Work:

      • AWS IPI deployment support for openshift-install
