DevOps Engineer (offline)

About Application and Tasks
The application is a PHP (Laravel/vuejs) based SaaS Application using MySQL as a database. We intend to run it using a multi-instance model, meaning, an independent/dedicated host or docker container for each client/tenant for the same SaaS application. This, in turn, will have a dedicated and independent MySQL database for each instance (either from a single cloud source like RDS or a container running MySQL). If external storage needs to be used (say, Amazon s3) each instance needs to have a dedicated bucket.

All the instances will be connected (if needed) via a central application (we call it Client Control Panel, aka CCP) which will take care of new client registration, client payment, and other client and instance management services). The CCP will have it's own dedicated container and database and external storage too. The CCP application's user interface needs to have the ability to connect to the deployment tool or environment via API to monitor client instances and create/upgrade/retire client instances.

Moreover, each instance may need to use services like use Redis, RabbitMQ, ElastiCache, SockerIO, Pusher and other services based on the requirement of the applications. The application's code is maintained in Github, Bitbucket or Gitlab private repositories. The Deployment Automation Process should be able to take care of all of these:

Creating new instances
Upgrading/retiring existing instances
New application development
