MultiSite planning

A new group has been assigned to help with the next release. Excellent! The only catch is that the new group is in Tokyo and you are in Boston. The following sections outline planning steps for bringing a new distributed development site online:

  • Profile and qualify the remote site

  • Detailed planning and infrastructure acquisition

  • Infrastructure testing

  • Staged rollout

It gets easier. The first rollout will be the hardest. You are new to the technology and defining a remote site for the first time. As you implement your first rollout, think what document and standards will help for the second one.
