Return To Work
Application Architecture consists of the interaction of applications with each other and with users. It focuses less on internal mechanics and specific programming and more on overall design on how data is consumed and created by the system. It views the interactions between applications, databases, middleware to ensure scalability, reliability, availability and manageability.
Key Messages
- Protocol and measures will be put in place to ensure that the workplace is equipped to properly support returning personnel and making sure the space is safe.
- [Require specific details of how workplace is responding to:]
- open seating protocol;
- plexiglass at commissionaire stations;
- sanitizer availability and ordering;
- reducing chairs in boardrooms for meetings;
- kitchen protocols; and
- marking floor spaces, among others.
- Staff returning to the workplace will not be automatically tested for COVID-19. However, any DT member who is experiencing COVID-19 symptoms is encouraged to get tested, following the advice of their provincial and territorial health authorities
- Should a staff member feel ill and be experiencing symptoms of COVID-19, they are asked to inform their supervisor, go/stay home, and contact local public health authorities. This will be supported by management across the DT.
- Each supervisor, including myself, will be responsible for ensuring that staff are abiding by physical distancing requirements and PPE and PHM guidance within the workplace.
- Upon your return, you will notice that all Defence Establishments have been - or are being - marked with one-way pathways and staircases, and elevators only to be used by individuals with limited mobility.
- Hand sanitizer will be available at each entrance/exit and will be replenished when possible given the high demand for the product. More importantly, staff are encouraged to frequently wash their hands with soap and water for at least twenty seconds, as this is the most effective way to sanitize hands.
- Direction on how cubicles can and should be occupied to maintain distancing has been received and you may notice some differences in how to access and use communal spaces. For example, you will see that washrooms, for the most part, will be single occupancy.
- As a Defence Team member, you are encouraged to continue to talk to your supervisor if there is a periodic or ongoing requirement for you to work from home due to COVID-19 related reasons (i.e. child care, elder care, symptoms, etc.).
Maximize Reuse
- Leverage and reuse existing solutions, components, and processes
- The use of Open Source software can ensure that other Departments reuse components developed, and vice versa.
- SaaS, PaaS and IaaS solutions can leverage sharing of configurations when no code is involved such as the GC Accelerators (AWS, Amazon)
- Opening up Communication with other Departments to identify if they've already developed a solution can enable further reuse.
- Select enterprise and cluster solutions over department-specific solutions
- Focus on solutions that enable sharing with other Departments, do not focus just on individual mandates.
- Costs can be setup to be shared across multiple departments, agencies etc...
- Achieve simplification by minimizing duplication of components and adhering to relevant standards
- Focus on Separation of Concern by the development of Microservices, and use and reuse of APIs.
- Consume APIs from the Government of Canada API Store if it exists, if it does not add it to the API store.
- Follow the Government of Canada Standards on APIs
- Inform the GC EARB about departmental investments and innovations
- Communicate with the GC-EARB Team early and frequently, sharing innovations and lessons learned so we can assistance in broadcasting them to others.
- Share code publicly when appropriate, and when not, share within the Government of Canada
