Implementing DevO
summary
A field-first DevOps stack prioritizing data consistency over availability using a three-box local deployment: a primary app box, a hot backup box, and an offline backup, all running Linux and Docker. The stack runs OpenMRS for patient records and DHIS2 for aggregate data, with monitoring via Prometheus, Alertmanager, and Superset; daily backups auto-upload, alerts link to runbooks, and remote support is via VPN/SSH. Operational experience includes a single failover in four years and two boxes lost to lightning, leading to stronger UPS and network protections.
