Infrastructure Department
This is a top level epic for [the Infrastructure department](https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/engineering/infrastructure/).
The epic is used to show the work that is ongoing, in planning, and the work that has been completed as part of our strategies, as part of the department mission. The epic is an entry point for each team, and should not contain individual projects:
```mermaid
graph TD
A(Infrastructure) --> B(Scalability)
subgraph Scalability
B --> H(Project1)
B --> I(Project2)
end
A --> C(Delivery)
A --> D(Reliability)
subgraph Reliability
D --> E(Squad x...)
D --> F(Squad y...)
end
A --> G(Project Horse)
```
## How to use this epic
The roadmaps, process definitions, and other documentation should be a part of the handbook as part of the [handbook usage recommendations](https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/engineering/infrastructure/#handbook-use-at-the-infrastructure-department).
Each function in the department can use this epic to reference their existing work based on their individual mission.

## OKR's
Going forward, we will be using [the top-level `gitlab-com` epic](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-com/-/epics/1420) to track OKRs in GitLab.
## Centralized Roadmap
The following board shows all initiatives actively being worked on across the Infrastructure department:
