Create documentation for infrastructure-specific use cases of Fidesctl

Open iamkelllly opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

It was found in beta testing participants that having ready documentation about known high-level architectural use cases can assist in broader understanding and adoption of fidesctl organizations' software projects.

Working title: "Where Fides fits in your organization"

A few ideas for diagrams or infrastructures it may be nice to outline for prospective adopters:

  • large software companies with federated business units
  • micro-sized company with SPA and single db (and probably a lot of 3rd party SaaS apps)
  • small-sized startup with mobile app, web app, few dbs and SaaS products, SaaS data warehouse
  • mid-sized scale-up with few-to-many application dbs, few data warehouses with ETL/replication processes, and 3rd party SaaS products

This documentation should broadly answer the question:

  • will fidesctl work with my data infrastructure?
  • where would fidesctl live in my infrastructure?
  • will fidesctl meet my organization's data use case, generally?
