5.1 Select and Compose Baselines
Go to 5. Operational Concept
Baseline Composition selects identified and version-controlled Baselines and makes their content available within a controlled workspace for the selected Operational Lifecycle activity.
A composition can include:
Application sourceOne or more Image LayersOne or more Infrastructure BaselinesA combination of application source, Image Layers, and Infrastructure Baselinestext/html2026-08-01T13:10:04+00:00Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com)5.2 Construct Images

5.2 Construct Images
Go to 5. Operational Concept
Crucible constructs identified and version-controlled Images from controlled inputs.
Supported image forms include:
Machine Images used to create virtual machinesContainer Images used to create containerized workloads
Image construction uses the applicable Baseline Composition, selected Image Layers, configuration, software packages, dependencies, security content, and othertext/html2026-08-01T13:13:25+00:00Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com)5.3 Capture and Preserve Dependencies

5.3 Capture and Preserve Dependencies
Go to 5. Operational Concept
Dependency Capture identifies, obtains, records, and preserves the Dependencies required to perform a selected Operational Lifecycle activity.
Crucible treats Dependency Capture as a controlled lifecycle activity rather than an informal packaging step. The captured dependency set provides the inputs needed to reproduce a construction, assessment, transfer, deployment, validation, maintenance, or recovery activity without relyi…text/html2026-08-01T13:20:03+00:00Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com)5.4 Assess Compliance

5.4 Assess Compliance
Go to 5. Operational Concept
Crucible performs a Compliance Assessment by evaluating an identified subject against selected compliance criteria.
The assessed subject can include:
A Machine ImageA Container ImageAn Infrastructure EnvironmentAn Infrastructure ConfigurationA deployed resource or workloadA BaselineAnother identified artifact or operational result governed by applicable compliance criteriatext/html2026-08-01T13:21:15+00:00Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com)5.5 Deploy the Environment
https://wiki.didosolutions.com/dido/02-crusible/05-operational-concept/05-05-deploy-the-environment?rev=1785590475&do=diff
5.5 Deploy the Environment
Go to 5. Operational Concept
Crucible deploys an identified and controlled environment from selected Baselines, constructed Images, configuration, dependencies, and deployment parameters.
Deployment realizes the intended environment on a selected Deployment Target. Crucible preserves the relationship between the intended deployment, the inputs used, the operations performed, and the resulting deployed state.text/html2026-08-01T13:23:36+00:00Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com)5.6 Validate the Result

5.6 Validate the Result
Go to 5. Operational Concept
Deployment Validation evaluates an identified deployment result against the applicable Acceptance Criteria.
A completed deployment establishes that the deployment operations reached a completion state. It does not independently establish that the resulting environment satisfies the conditions required for its intended use.text/html2026-08-01T13:28:02+00:00Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com)5.7 Preserve Evidence and Lifecycle Records

5.7 Preserve Evidence and Lifecycle Records
Go to 5. Operational Concept
Crucible preserves Evidence and lifecycle records produced during baseline composition, image construction, dependency capture, compliance assessment, deployment, and validation.

5. Operational Concept
Go to Crucible
The operational concept describes how Crucible applies its approved capabilities as a coordinated lifecycle.
The lifecycle begins with the selection and composition of approved Baselines and continues through image construction, Dependency Capture, Compliance Assessment, deployment, validation, and preservation of 05-operational-concept index
