Compute Architecture Template
Documenting the compute infrastructure: VMs, containers, serverless, autoscaling, and workload isolation models
The Compute Architecture template provides a structured approach to documenting the compute infrastructure: VMs, containers, serverless, autoscaling, and workload isolation models.
Template Sections
This template includes 7 sections.
Compute Strategy
Describe the compute strategy: preferred compute models (VMs, containers, serverless), selection criteria for each, and...
Compute Architecture Diagram
Diagram section
Compute Components
Document each compute component: its purpose, the workloads it runs, scaling configuration, and the team responsible...
Compute Performance Requirements
Define compute requirements: CPU and memory targets, scaling response times, cold start tolerances, and resource...
Compute Capacity Plan
Document current compute capacity, projected growth, scaling headroom, and the triggers for capacity expansion
Compute Principles
State compute principles: right-sizing, ephemeral instances, immutable infrastructure, and workload isolation...
Compute Risks
Document compute risks: capacity exhaustion, noisy neighbour effects, autoscaling failures, and cost overruns from...
