Phased Deployment Methods for System Rollout

This guide details the phased deployment methods for system components, emphasizing a systematic rollout strategy that incorporates template-driven development and code reusability. It outlines the challenges faced during the commissioning of new sites, including the need for off-site testing of equipment, integration with primary production systems, and the management of project edits. The document describes various Ignition design strategies, such as User Defined Types (UDTs) and view templates, which facilitate rapid development and deployment. It also discusses the importance of project inheritance for sharing resources across multiple projects. The guide further explains the phased commissioning approach, which begins with establishing a structured database and tag structure. Additionally, it addresses typical architectures for data centers, highlighting the need for scale-out architectures to manage large data throughput. The document concludes with an example of a Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) process, illustrating the steps involved in commissioning systems connected to gateways.
