Title/Caption: Meeting with Wayne about servers and migration

Sorry, no photos available for this element of time.


Notes:

These were some of our planned topics of discussion. We somewhat got to them, but mostly it was Wayne talking with Steve, myself, Alan, and Russell and filling us in on his dream of where things are going.

What the plan for migration?

Who will take care of what?

Who else needs to be brought in to help with this? Alan had the idea of each person goes in and beats up on stuff that they know about and/or built. We don't want overlap, but we do want to test these new environments. Photos, media/content, ecommerce, carts, CRM stuff, elements of time, E/R's, deposits, 12 main players, API sockets, 3rd party integration, settings, permissions, database updates, migrating data and images over to new servers.

What is the timing for this?

Notes from our real meeting:

Wayne was doing some training for Russell and Alan. He is somewhat leading the way and then Alan and others are following suite. Some good direction. Both Russell and Alan were asking questions and they were having a good discussion. Steve and I were somewhat on the outside of the whole meeting.

They were talking about ways of setting up dynamic settings, database storage options, server configuration, clusters, and prepping things for moves in that direction. Pretty cool stuff.

Wayne is really into Docker images and showed the guys some stuff about that and how he is using it. One of the topics here was dealing with setting up new servers, development environments, and onboarding new team members. The current process is quite slow with multiple manual steps.

One of my takeaways from the meeting was - Get out of the way. Help to lead and guide them but let them run. Use the talents of those around you.

More talks about databases, engines, and clusters. They are setting things up to go faster and further.

Quote from Wayne - "We do custom like no other". It truly is a custom solution and we are willing and able to play in that direction.
