ADAM SUITE must follow the versions made available on its technical base to respond to security, performance, and obsolescence issues. This evolution of the technical components is expected to occur in the first half of 2024.

Our clients have their limitations and IT strategies, and our teams will work together to tackle them. Hence, our teams will be eager to provide guidance on the optimal deployment alternatives provided by these advancements. You can rely on us.

 

Updated components

 

What are these new features bringing?

Spring Boot will facilitate deployments and expedite the installation of new versions by utilizing these technologies and techniques. We will provide you with the following options:

  • Around Tomcat. We will provide two deployment solutions:
    1. “Standalone” with Spring Boot technology and the Tomcat server embedded in the application.
    2. “Expert” under Tomcat to retain customization possibilities.
  • With ANSIBLE version 2. We recommend implementing this scenario as it offers numerous advantages.
    We will furnish deployment scripts that customers can modify to their environments to enhance automation.

Not only that, but we will also do a webinar about these innovations in the coming months. This communication aims to prepare CIOs who oversee operating applications for these methods.

About ANSIBLE

Ansible is an open-source automation tool that is used for various IT tasks, including configuration management, application deployment, and task automation.

Here’s a brief summary of Ansible’s key features and capabilities:

  1. Automation: Ansible allows you to automate repetitive and complex tasks, making it easier to manage and configure systems and applications.
  2. Agentless: Unlike some other automation tools, Ansible is agentless, meaning it doesn’t require any software to be installed on the target systems. It communicates with remote systems using SSH, making it lightweight and easy to set up.
  3. Declarative Language: Ansible uses a declarative language to define the desired state of systems. You specify what the end result should be, and Ansible takes care of figuring out how to get there.
  4. Playbooks: Automation tasks in Ansible are defined in YAML files called playbooks. Playbooks describe the tasks to be performed on specific hosts or groups of hosts.
  5. Idempotent: Ansible playbooks are idempotent, meaning they can be run multiple times without causing harm. If a task has already been completed and the system is in the desired state, Ansible won’t make any changes.
  6. Extensible: Ansible can be extended through modules, which are reusable units of code that perform specific tasks. A vast library of Ansible modules is available to support a wide range of operations.
  7. Inventory: Ansible uses an inventory file to keep track of the target hosts it manages. This file can be static or dynamic, allowing for flexible host groupings and organization.
  8. Role-Based: Ansible promotes the use of roles to organize and reuse sets of tasks. Roles can be shared and reused across different playbooks.
  9. Community and Ecosystem: Ansible has a large and active community, contributing to its extensive library of roles and modules. It also integrates well with other tools and systems.
  10. Security: Ansible employs secure communication via SSH, and it doesn’t require a centralized server for operation, making it a secure choice for automation.

Ansible is widely used by DevOps teams and system administrators to streamline and simplify infrastructure management and application deployment processes, making it a valuable tool for modern IT operations.
