Part 1 Introduction

The first part of this book lays the groundwork for your journey to writing an orchestration system—from scratch!

In chapter 1, you will learn the core components that make up every orchestration system. From these core components, you will build a mental model for the Cube orchestrator, which we will implement together through the rest of the book.

Chapter 2 guides you through creating code skeletons from the mental model you learned in chapter 1.

In chapter 3, you will take the skeleton for the Task object and flesh it out in detail. This exercise will illustrate the process we’ll use to implement the rest of Cube’s codebase.
