Phineas
=======
We are collecting our set of requirements and expectations for
acceptable application hosting.
Archtypes
---------
We are working with four initial archetypes:
1. (Infrastructure-oriented) sysadmins
2. Infrastructure-oriented developers
3. Application-oriented developers
4. Service-oriented partners
NB "infrastructure-oriented" and "application-oriented" are a horizontal
spectrum, *not* a value judgment. When a developer deploys a new
application release, it can be said that they are application-oriented.
That same developer might then tweak the number of running application
replicas, becoming an infrastructure-orinted developer.
We sometimes refer to "caring about infrastructure," but it's less about
whether someone actually cares than it is about whether someone *is
expected* to care about infrastructure when performing certain actions.
Someone has to care, but not everyone, and not all the time.
