Description

The F5 Distributed Cloud Platform offers enhanced features, robust security measures, and streamlined operations superior to those provided by native cloud services. This platform is specifically designed to cater to distributed applications operating in multi-cloud, on-premises, and edge settings. As software applications transition into microservices and increasingly rely on APIs, the emergence of complex and highly distributed architectures brings about challenges, escalated costs, and heightened risks. To effectively deliver applications, it is necessary to deploy and manage various appliances, software, and connectivity services. Conventional CDNs and hub-and-spoke networks fall short when it comes to supporting immersive or large-scale SaaS applications. With differing APIs, policies, and levels of observability, there is a pressing need for significant investments in automation. Applications that are distributed across various environments often face unequal protection levels. Furthermore, achieving alignment among DevOps, NetOps, and SecOps during service provisioning and security poses significant challenges, particularly when relying on ticket-based workflows, which can hinder efficiency and responsiveness. Addressing these complexities is crucial for optimizing the management of distributed applications.

Description

IBM Cloud® Schematics streamlines automation by utilizing declarative Terraform templates to achieve the intended cloud infrastructure setup. By seamlessly integrating with Red Hat® Ansible, it enhances configuration, management, and provisioning for both software and applications while also connecting with various IBM Cloud Services. Through Terraform-as-a-Service, DevOps teams can leverage a high-level configuration language to effectively model their desired resources in the cloud, thereby facilitating Infrastructure as Code (IaC). Effortlessly install software packages and application code on your infrastructure, allowing your team to build, deploy, and refine their automation processes. This approach significantly enhances the DevOps lifecycle, covering everything from planning and builds to software testing and application monitoring. Additionally, by utilizing Satellite alongside Schematics, organizations can automate the establishment of Satellite locations and Red Hat OpenShift® on IBM Cloud, streamlining operations and improving efficiency across the board. The combination of these tools fosters a more agile and responsive cloud infrastructure management strategy.
