Critical Blocker Discovered
Redis Memorystore NOT Deployed 🚨
Status: ❌ Missing (blocks ALL backend development) Impact: views.py requires Redis for atomic seat counting Fix Time: 30 minutes Priority: P0 - MUST BE DONE FIRST
cd opentofu/environments/dev
tofu apply -target=module.redis
gcloud redis instances list --region=us-central1
Acceptance Criteria:
- Redis operational with 6GB capacity
- Accessible from GKE via private IP (10.0.0.3:6379)
- RDB persistence enabled
- Connection tested from GKE pod
Missing Components (40% of Backend)
Services Layer (2-3 hours):
backend/licenses/services.py- Business logic wrapper- Cloud KMS integration for license signing
- Celery tasks for zombie session cleanup
Tests (4-5 hours):
- pytest suite with 80%+ coverage
- Model tests (License, Session methods)
- View tests (API endpoints)
- Service tests (business logic)
- Redis Lua script tests
Containerization (3 hours):
- Dockerfile (Django + Gunicorn)
- Kubernetes manifests (Deployment, Service, HPA)
- ConfigMap and Secret resources
Deployment (2 hours):
- Build and push Docker image
- Apply K8s manifests to GKE
- Verify 3 pods running
- Health endpoint checks
2. Critical Path Validation
Backend MVP Critical Path
Redis Deployment (30 min) ⬅️ BLOCKER
↓
Services Layer (2-3h)
↓
Test Suite (4-5h)
↓
Docker + K8s (3h)
↓
GKE Deployment (2h)
↓
Backend MVP Complete ✅
Total Time: 11.5-13.5 hours (2-3 days at 4-5 hours/day)
Validation:
- ✅ Redis is ONLY blocker
- ✅ All other infrastructure deployed
- ✅ Django code 60% complete
- ✅ Cloud KMS already deployed (unexpected win!)
- ✅ No external dependencies
Phase 7 Deferred Work (NOT Blocking MVP)
15 tasks (30 hours) deferred to parallel track:
- 4 tasks Phase 7C (8 hours) - C4 diagrams, security diagram
- 7 tasks Phase 7D (15 hours) - C3 diagrams, supporting diagrams
- 4 tasks Phase 7E (6.5 hours) - Code validation, cross-reference index
Key Insight: Phase 7 documentation does NOT block backend MVP. Strategy: Technical writer can complete Phase 7 in parallel with backend development.
3. Resource Allocation Strategy
Track 1: Backend MVP (Critical Path) - P0
Resource: 1 Backend Developer (full-time) Duration: 2-3 days Focus: Services, tests, deployment Priority: P0 - CRITICAL
Day-by-Day Breakdown:
Day 1 (Today - 4-5 hours):
- Deploy Redis Memorystore (30 min) - BLOCKER REMOVAL
- Create Services layer (2-3 hours)
- Start test suite (1-2 hours)
Day 2 (Tomorrow - 5-6 hours): 4. Complete tests (3-4 hours) 5. Create Dockerfile (1 hour) 6. Create Kubernetes manifests (2 hours)
Day 3 (4-6 hours): 7. Deploy to GKE (2-3 hours) 8. Configure SSL + DNS (2-3 hours) 9. End-to-end testing
Track 2: Phase 7 Documentation (Parallel) - P1
Resource: 1 Technical Writer (part-time) Duration: 6-7 days Focus: Remaining diagrams and documentation Priority: P1 - Important but not blocking
Week 1 (Days 1-5):
- Create 4 deferred Phase 7C diagrams (8 hours)
- Create 7 Phase 7D diagrams/docs (15 hours)
Week 2 (Days 6-7):
- Complete Phase 7E validation (6.5 hours)
- Final gap analysis and reporting
Parallel Execution: These tracks run independently:
- Backend developer focuses on MVP (Days 1-3)
- Technical writer completes Phase 7 (Days 1-7)
- No coordination required (zero dependencies)

6. Resource Requirements
Personnel
Backend Track (Days 1-3):
-
Backend Developer: 100% allocation (12-14 hours total)
- Services layer implementation
- Cloud KMS integration
- Code reviews
-
DevOps Engineer: 80% allocation (10-12 hours total)
- Redis deployment
- Dockerfile creation
- K8s manifests
- GKE deployment
- SSL + DNS configuration
-
QA Engineer: 60% allocation (8-10 hours total)
- Test suite creation
- End-to-end testing
- Performance validation
Documentation Track (Days 1-7):
- Technical Writer: 60% allocation (30 hours total)
- Phase 7C-7D diagrams
- Phase 7E validation
- Gap analysis and reporting
Tools & Infrastructure
Required Tools:
- OpenTofu 1.10.7 (infrastructure deployment)
- kubectl (Kubernetes management)
- Docker (container building)
- gcloud CLI (GCP operations)
- pytest (backend testing)
- curl (API testing)
Infrastructure Costs:
- Development environment: $310/month (with Redis)
- No additional costs for MVP deployment
7. Risk Mitigation Strategies
High-Priority Risks
| Risk | Probability | Impact | Mitigation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Redis deployment fails | Low | HIGH | Use verified OpenTofu module, test locally first |
| Cloud KMS integration issues | Medium | HIGH | KMS already deployed, use existing examples |
| Tests take longer than expected | Medium | MEDIUM | Prioritize critical path tests, defer edge cases |
| GKE deployment errors | Low | HIGH | Dry-run manifests, validate before apply |
| SSL certificate delays | Medium | MEDIUM | Use Let's Encrypt staging first, then production |
| Phase 7 delays MVP | ZERO | N/A | Runs in parallel, no blocking dependencies |
Contingency Plans
If Redis deployment fails:
- Fallback: Deploy manually via gcloud CLI
- Estimated recovery: +1 hour
If tests take too long:
- Strategy: Defer non-critical tests to post-MVP
- Minimum viable: 60% coverage instead of 80%
If GKE deployment fails:
- Rollback: Revert to previous working state
- Debug: Check pod logs, events, describe deployment
- Estimated recovery: +2 hours
If SSL takes too long:
- Temporary: Use HTTP for initial testing
- Deploy SSL in parallel (doesn't block API testing)

- Fix any critical bugs discovered
- Optimize performance (if needed)
- Complete remaining Phase 7 documentation
Week 2 Priorities
-
Phase 7 Completion (6-7 days)
- All diagrams created
- All FastAPI→Django conversions complete
- Gap analysis finalized
-
Frontend Development (optional, can start Week 3)
- React 18 + TypeScript dashboard
- Integration with backend API
- Deployment to GKE
-
Production Hardening (Week 3-4)

12. Conclusion
This plan provides a clear, actionable roadmap to:
- Backend MVP in 2-3 days via focused multi-agent coordination
- Phase 7 documentation complete in 6-7 days via parallel track
- Zero blocking dependencies between tracks (maximum efficiency)
Key Success Factors:
- Redis deployment is ONLY blocker (30 min fix)
- Django backend 60% complete (huge head start)
- Clear agent assignments with specific prompts
- Parallel execution maximizes resource utilization
- Comprehensive monitoring ensures early issue detection
Next Action: Deploy Redis Memorystore (30 min) to unblock entire critical path.
