Hey everyone, I'm deploying Microcks on GCP and need your input on the best approach. Option 1: Using an IAM User (Manual Deployment)Developers log in with personal emails (e.g., [email protected]). Option 2: Using a Service Account (Automated Deployment)Instead of personal emails, a dedicated service account is created (e.g., [email protected]). Pros: Best for automation, scalable, reduces human intervention. Which method do you recommend for a scalable and production-ready setup? Let me know your thoughts! |

After researching, I found that deploying using a service account is the best approach for a production-ready setup so i going with service account have been setting up and deploying Microcks on GCP GKE and documenting each step along the way. Once the deployment steps are finalized and well-documented, I’ll be submitting a PR to the official Microcks documentation to help others easily deploy Microcks on Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE). |

Help Needed: Building Community-Driven Documentation for Deploying Microcks in Cloud Production Environments
Hi Microcks community! 👋
I'm Md Khurshid, an LFX mentee working on the project "Building Community-Driven Documentation for Deploying Microcks in Cloud Production Environments."
🔗 Project Issue: #32
Why This Matters 🚀
While the core Microcks maintainers focus on features, security, and enhancements, the adopters are responsible for deploying Microcks in production.
By creating a shared repository of best practices, we can help users deploy Microcks efficiently, avoid common pitfalls, and learn from each other in a true open-source spirit.
Project Goals
This project aims to support the growing Microcks adopter community by collaboratively documenting best practices for production-grade deployments across various cloud providers, including:
☁️ AWS, GCP, Azure, OVH, Oracle, Scaleway, and Koyeb.
Deliverables will include guides on utilizing cloud-native services (e.g., PostgreSQL, MongoDB, IDP) to create robust and scalable Microcks installations, ideally on managed Kubernetes services from the provider.
How You Can Help? 🤝
We want your input to make this documentation useful and relevant! Please share:
✅ Deployment challenges you've faced in production.
✅ Best practices or solutions you've implemented.
✅ Cloud-native services/tools (PostgreSQL, MongoDB, IDP, etc.) that worked well for you.
✅ Suggestions & contributions to improve our documentation.
💡 Your feedback is valuable! Let’s work together to create community-driven guides that help everyone confidently deploy Microcks in real-world cloud environments.
Drop your thoughts, experiences, and suggestions below! Let’s build this together! 🔥
