Transmutator¶
Transmutator is a general purpose migration framework. It focuses on automating actions you perform to upgrade (or downgrade) a product.
Warning
This project is experimental. At this stage, it just describes concepts. Perhaps the concepts are implemented by some existing tools.
A typical migration for a web service could include:
- ask admin for confirmation
- enable maintenance page
- stop frontends
- backup data
- update configuration
- provision machines (upgrade software)
- migrate databases
- restart frontends
- run smoketests
- disable maintenance page.
