- High-Level Architecture – Diagrams
and explanations of cloud, on-prem, or hybrid infrastructure.
- Component Breakdown – Details of
services, databases, message queues, networking, and security layers.
- Data Flow Diagrams – How data moves
between systems and services.
- Infrastructure as Code (IaC) Details
– Terraform, CloudFormation, Pulumi, or Ansible configurations.
2. Incident
Management & Postmortems
- Incident Playbooks – Steps to follow
for different failure scenarios.
- Postmortems & RCA (Root Cause Analysis)
– Lessons learned from past incidents.
- Alerting & Monitoring Setup –
What metrics are monitored, thresholds, and escalation paths.
3. CI/CD
& Release Management
- Pipeline Architecture – Jenkins,
GitHub Actions, GitLab CI/CD, ArgoCD, Spinnaker, etc.
