- Service definitions and dependencies
- Network configurations
- Volume mappings
- Environment variables (secrets excluded)
- Health check definitions

- Security policies (user, capabilities, read-only)
Validation Rules:
- All services must have health checks
- All containers must specify non-root user where possible
- All secrets must use external env files
- All images must use specific tags (no :latest)
- Resource limits must be defined for CPU and memory
Backup Archive
Description: Complete system snapshots including databases, files, and configurations with metadata
Key Attributes:
- Archive ID (unique identifier)
- Timestamp (creation time)
- Backup type (full/incremental)
- Source environment

- Compression status
- Encryption status
- Validation status
- Retention period
- Storage location
Validation Rules:
- All archives must be encrypted
- All archives must have integrity validation
- Backup frequency: daily for critical data
- Retention: 30 days daily, 90 days weekly, 1 year monthly
- Must include database consistency checks
Monitoring Metric
Description: Performance and health data points collected from all infrastructure components
Key Attributes:

- Aggregation rules
Validation Rules:
- All services must expose health metrics
- Critical metrics must have alert thresholds
- Data retention: 90 days detailed, 1 year aggregated
- Metrics must include CPU, memory, disk, network
- Application-specific metrics for business logic
Security Policy
Description: Container hardening rules and compliance requirements for all deployments
Key Attributes:
- Policy ID (unique identifier)
- Policy type (user, capabilities, filesystem)
- Rule definitions

- Remediation procedures
Validation Rules:
- All containers must run with non-root users

State Transitions
Deployment Lifecycle
Planned -> In Progress -> Testing -> Live -> Decommissioned
Backup Lifecycle
Scheduled -> In Progress -> Completed -> Validated -> Expired
Alert Lifecycle
Triggered -> Acknowledged -> Resolved -> Closed
Change Management
Requested -> Approved -> Implemented -> Validated -> Closed
Relationships
- Environment contains many Service Instances
- Service Instance generates Monitoring Metrics
- Backup Archive contains data from Service Instances
- Alert Rule monitors Monitoring Metrics
- Security Policy applies to Service Instances
- Infrastructure Change modifies Deployment Environments
- Recovery Point references Backup Archive
- Secret Configuration used by Service Instances
Data Integrity Constraints
- All entities must have unique identifiers
- All timestamps must be UTC
- All audit fields must be immutable
- Foreign key relationships must be validated
- All sensitive data must be encrypted
- All changes must be auditable
