Shipyard

Shipyard is the directed acyclic graph controller for Kubernetes and OpenStack control plane life cycle management, and a component of the Airship Undercloud Platform (UCP).

Shipyard provides the entrypoint for the following aspects of the control plane established by the Airship:

<dt>
    Designs and Secrets
</dt>
<dd>
    Site designs, including the configuration of bare metal host
    nodes, network design, operating systems, Kubernetes nodes,
    Armada manifests, Helm charts, and any other descriptors that
    define the build out of a group of servers enter the Airship via
    Shipyard. Secrets, such as passwords and certificates use the
    same mechanism. <br />
    The designs and secrets are stored in Airship's Deckhand,
    providing for version history and secure storage among other
    document-based conveniences.
</dd>
<dt>
    Actions
</dt>
<dd>
    Interaction with the site's control plane is done via
    invocation of actions in Shipyard. Each action is backed by
    a workflow implemented as a directed acyclic graph (DAG) that
    runs using Apache Airflow. Shipyard provides a mechanism to
    monitor and control the execution of the workflow.
