====== FR-DEP-003 — Deploy Kubernetes Clusters ======

[[dido:02-crusible:99-annexes:annex-c-requirements:03-functional-requirements:03-03-deployment-orchestration:start|Go to Crucible Deployment Orchestration Requirements]]

===== Statement =====

[[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:c:crucible|Crucible]] SHALL deploy [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:k:kubernetes_cluster|Kubernetes Clusters]].

===== Derived From =====

This requirement derives from:

  * Crucible System Requirements Specification, Version 1.1 Draft, Functional Requirements, FR-DEP-003

The Original Requirement states:

> //The system shall deploy [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:k:kubernetes_cluster|Kubernetes clusters]].//[[dido:02-crusible:99-annexes:annex-b:cr-001|[C1]]]

FR-DEP-003:

  * Replaces **The system** with the defined system name [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:c:crucible|Crucible]]
  * Changes **shall** to the established uppercase normative form **SHALL**
  * Links **Kubernetes Clusters** to the controlling definition

No other substantive normalization is required.

===== Rationale =====

A [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:k:kubernetes_cluster|Kubernetes Cluster]] provides the control-plane and worker-node capabilities required to schedule, execute, connect, and manage containerized workloads.

Deploying Kubernetes Clusters enables Crucible to establish Kubernetes-based platforms through separately governed deployment workflows.

This requirement establishes Kubernetes Cluster deployment without prescribing:

  * A Kubernetes distribution
  * A Kubernetes version
  * A cluster topology
  * The target Infrastructure Environment
  * The Deployment Target
  * The deployment mechanism
  * Workload deployment
  * Platform-service deployment
  * Deployment validation
  * Deployment rollback
  * Compliance assessment

Separate requirements define those subjects and behaviors.

===== Applies To =====

This requirement applies to:

  * [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:c:crucible|Crucible]]
  * [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:k:kubernetes_cluster|Kubernetes Clusters]]
  * Kubernetes Cluster deployment operations

===== Verification =====

Verification confirms that:

  - One or more Kubernetes Clusters are selected for deployment
  - [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:c:crucible|Crucible]] executes a deployment operation for the selected Kubernetes Clusters
  - The completed deployment produces the selected Kubernetes Clusters
  - The resulting Kubernetes Clusters can be identified as outputs of the tested deployment

Implemented and Verified

===== Requirement Status =====

<todo>Review and approve FR-DEP-003 as a leaf requirement.</todo>

===== Issues =====

<todo>Determine whether separate requirements identify the configuration used for each Kubernetes Cluster deployment.</todo>

<todo>Determine whether separate requirements identify the Deployment Target or Infrastructure Environment for each Kubernetes Cluster deployment.</todo>

===== Notes for Editors =====

This requirement page retains the stable requirement identifier ''FR-DEP-003''.

This page is a leaf requirement page and omits a trailing '':start'' from its namespace.

The Statement preserves the approved source intent by requiring Crucible to deploy Kubernetes Clusters.

Do not add a Kubernetes distribution, Kubernetes version, cluster topology, target Infrastructure Environment, Deployment Target, workload-deployment, platform-service, rollback, validation, compliance-assessment, or retirement obligation unless the controlling requirement changes through an approved requirements process.
