For Solutions Engineers
📝 Context
This repo teaches you HOW to deploy in constrained environments (air-gapped, private clusters, firewall-restricted).
For operational SE guidance (discovery, scoping, handoff, account strategy), see: 👉 SE Playbook
🎯 Quick Mapping
If customer says...
| Customer Constraint | Start With | SE Playbook Guide |
|---|---|---|
| "No internet access" | Lab 02: Air-Gapped | Air-Gapped Environment |
| "Private cluster" | Lab 03: Private Network | Private Cluster Guide |
| "Strict firewall" | Lab 04: Firewall-Restricted | Firewall-Restricted |
| "Need POC in 1 week" | Lab 05: POC Sprint | POC Scoping |
🔄 Your Workflow
- Discovery call (se-playbook) → Identifies constraint
- Lab (implementation-studio) → Practice deployment pattern
- Scoping (se-playbook) → Define customer POC
- Lab (implementation-studio) → Reference during execution
- Handoff (se-playbook) → Operational transition
🎯 Lab → Customer Adaptation
Each lab includes "Real-World Application" sections showing how to adapt for production. For customer engagement frameworks (discovery questions, scoping templates, handoff checklists), see the SE Playbook.
