Infrastructure

From Faster Than 20

Assessing infrastructure:

  • Utility
    • Does it serve its purpose?
  • Robustness / reliability / resilience
    • Can we depend on it? What dependencies does it have (e.g. external services)? How automated is it? Is there backup?
  • Evolvability
    • How easy is it to extend? Is it open source? Is there an active ecosystem supporting it?

I want to create a standard scoring system so that I can include these scores on my project pages for infrastructure we're using or building.
