@knowhy I'd still argue each of those are significantly more transparent to someone who wants to dig into the config. Looking at bitnami.com/stack/wordpress as an example, I can't see any obvious way to even figure out what web server the stack you'd be installing includes. ansible-galaxy is a bunch of pointers to Github projects with readable .yml files - Bitnami is an index of installers.

@ceejayoz But that applies to many systems. To me it seems like many people are using systems like docker. vagrant, puppetforge or ansible-galaxy (just to name a few) with the idea that the could avoid to understand how things work.

If it assists you in putting together a config, that's one thing, but the one-click stuff is typically negative on a long-term maintenance standpoint. | |

While I totally agree with Bitnami being off-topic I'm not sure that Bitnami encourages non-standard deployment methodologies is a good and systematic reason. Who decides what is a standard? Feels a bit arbitrarily. And when SF decides to label a technology as non-standard that might have an impact on the chances of a technology to become a new standard. I mean most technologies are kind of non-standard in an early phase.
