Interesting that firebase pull all functionality for a specific SDK into a single repo [1] rather than repo per feature per client tech...

This is the approach we currently take, but in terms of organisation have historically had a single SDK team managing the SDKs. With the new team structures, we could have multiple teams contributing to a single tech-centric repo rather than a specific team who owns the SDKs.

My vote is for separate repos for everything as its what's typically done in communities.
It will immediately be more accessible to community contributors as they'll likely be contributing to a single thing.

For example:

* the keycloak org https://github.com/keycloak has different repos for the node client, js client & java client.
* Similarly, the prometheus org https://github.com/prometheus has different repos for each client
* Firebase have different repos for each of their SDKs https://github.com/firebase/

A repo solution that involves mixing languages and concepts in a single repo is for the benefit of us developing across many things, rather than community focused.

I'm really not sure I like the idea of a separate org for the APBs - I just don't see the value. The APBs are an integral part of what we are building - why are we looking to hide them away in a separate org.

I'm also not sure of repo per component. My fear is that we will end up with about 10 repos per service. As we grow the number of services, this will, IMO, get unmanageable.

I think a good middle ground would be 3 x repos per service
- Service Impl - The actual service code (UPS, Sync, Keycloak, 3Scale) - not all of these will like in AeroGear
- Service Clients - SDKs (iOS, Android, Cordova etc) and IDE Integrations (Android Studio, XCode VS Code etc)
- Service APB

As mentioned by John having a consistent pattern for our services and their various pieces (cli, apb, ui) etc needs to be figured out.

The options:

Single Repo:  We kinda ruled this one out as it unlikely it would work well against 3rd part integrations such as 3scale or keycloak.


Repo for each piece: Lots of overhead and different repos. Off the top of my head it would be:
- repo for any cli piece
- repo for client sdks (iOS, android, cordova) etc ..
- repo for APB


I'd think this is cleanest - each artifact has it's own repository 

In addition, I think we could also move all the apbs to its own GH org. (aerogearplaybookbundles)


I think this makes the most sense as well.  Tooling likes single repos, and a separate org let's us point user to the direct shiny things (in aerogear) with out them getting overwhelmed by infrastructure (apb repo).  


+1 for this.

That will be good separation of concerns for services. Separate organization for apb which is deployment specific. 
Some services may not have cli so we will initially just have service repository in aerogear and apb in separate org.
 


 
 

Single Repo for clients
- 1 repo for cli, sdks and (maybe UI too?)
- 1 repo for APB (not a client but is a deployment mechanism).


Any other or better options people can think of?
