Precisely What Can Be Automated?

• Infrastructure Provisioning and Configuration • Selection of compute and storage resources • Selection of fabric paths interconnecting

compute and storage nodes of the topology • Tracking and provisioning of resources by

tenant and deployment • Tenancy with minimal connectivity and data

access between components • Server attachment to network and storage • Resource Management

• Compute resources (blade and rack servers) • CPU architecture, speed, and memory

characteristics • Nics, HBAs, uplinks, VLANs, MACs, IP/Subnet

pools, VSANs, zones, WWNs

• Storage resources • Volumes, LUNs, storage groups • Ports, uplinks, VLANs, VSANs

• Network Fabric • EPGs, L3, L2, Contracts, Tenancy, Isolation,

Filtering, QoS • Paths across the fabric

Software Deployment and Configuration –Add/remove/update OS services •Configure startup/shutdown

–Operating System configuration •Kernel configuration •File system mounts (block and file) •Network interfaces and routing

–Artifact installation and staging of installation files • (certs, templates, config files, …)

–Install/update/remove and configure software •Specific version •Update to new version

–Configure inter-component dependencies across entire topology •Endpoints •Credentials

–Identity •User/group membership

–Compliance •Enforce deployment and configuration constraints

–Configure consumption of external services •E.g. connect to an existing DB

–Provide endpoints to other services
