[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (WFCORE-433) git backend for loading/storing the configuration XML for wildfly

[Brian Stansberry (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFCORE-433?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13167209#comment-13167209 ] 

Brian Stansberry commented on WFCORE-433:
-----------------------------------------

As part of the application of the update to the Domain Controller, it rolls it out to all registered hosts/servers in the domain, rolling the update  back if there are failures. The update request can include headers that let the user somewhat control the rollout, both in regards to concurrency of updating servers and in regards to tolerance of failures on individual servers (i.e. not rolling back.)

> when working with wildfly in a cloud/paas environment (like openshift, fabric8, docker, heroku et al) it'd be great to have a git repository for the configuration folder so that writes work something like:
> * git pull
> * write the, say, standalone.xml file
> * git commit -a -m "some comment"
> * git push
> (with a handler to deal with conflicts; such as last write wins).
> Then an optional periodic 'git pull' and reload configuration if there is a change.
> This would then mean that folks could use a number of wildfly containers using docker / openshift / fabric8 and then have a shared git repository (e.g. the git repo in openshift or fabric8) to configure a group of wildfly containers. Folks could then reuse the wildfly management console within cloud environments (as the management console would, under the covers, be loading/saving from/to git)
> Folks could then benefit from git tooling when dealing with versioning and audit logs of changes to the XML; along with getting the benefit of branching, tagging.
