Coder's Well-Architected Framework

The text discusses a Meetup at an Austin Office, focusing on design principles and architectural best practices for building and operating a highly reliable, efficient, and scalable Coder deployment. It provides guidelines for understanding the developer community, starting small, considering workspaces to be ephemeral, performing changes as code, and implementing observability. The text also covers security needs, data protection, isolation of provisioners, enforcement of workspace updates, and collection of audit logs. Furthermore, it discusses high availability mode, leveraging Prometheus metrics, implementing a failover strategy, taking periodic database snapshots, running workspaces on scalable compute, enabling multiple STUN servers, allowing UDP traffic between users and workspaces, keeping workspaces close to users, running workspace proxies near your users, running workspaces near your data and services, allocating resource quotas, and tagging and labeling workspaces.
