dwelsch-esi opened this issue · 0 comments

Overview

In an "Overview" or "Start here" page, outline etcd's user roles or personas, including:

  • Evaluator: Someone trying to determine whether etcd is appropriate for their product, project, or organization.
  • Admin or Operator: Someone reponsible for setting up and maintaining a standalone (non-Kubernetes-backstore) production etcd service.
  • Kubernetes Admin: Someone responsible for a Kubernetes cluster using etcd as a backstore.
  • Developer: Someone incorporating or integrating etcd into an application or service.

In each user role section, provide a link to the beginning of a "getting started" workflow, either a Quick-start or Installation instructions.

Audience: All.

Type: Conceptual
