Fire - Infrastructure Upgrades – Maintenance details

During this time, we will be performing upgrades to Fire's infrastructure, changing how the bot and related applications are deployed/managed on the machine. These upgrades have already been tested in a production-like environment by moving Fire Beta to a separate machine for testing & learning.

The main upgrade should realistically only take 15-20 minutes with most of the time being spent replacing updating configurations for services exposed to the web as they can no longer be simply pointed to localhost & some port and even then, I don't expect this to take the entire duration of the maintenance but I'd rather schedule a larger window just in case

For anyone interested, I am moving Fire away from running directly on the machine and being managed via PM2 to using Docker containers & Kubernetes. This move will make it much easier to keep Fire up to date as upgrading the OS or Node version is as simple as changing the image used. It also comes with a more maintainable solution for offsite backups as I've configured the Postgres cluster with automatic backups to CloudFlare R2 rather than moving them to my Mac every so often
