Automation.Day STL '24 - Automate VMWare migrations to OpenShift Virtualization with AAP
In this session, Stuart Kirk, Principal Solutions Architect, Red Hat, presented on how to utilize Ansible Automation Platform (AAP) to automate the migration of virtual machines to OpenShift Virtualization, bringing all the benefits Ansible provides: speed, scale, and consistency.
Programmability and Automation Meetup: Automated Software Image Management
Software Image Management (SWIM) is a repeatable framework where engineers can produce repeatable, safe outcomes for efficient device software upgrades. This results in a faster response to vulnerability management, more predictable maintenance schedules, and hours of an engineer's life saved in the middle of the night.
In this session, Bob Longmore from World Wide Technology helped us answer the question- What if we used AAP and EDA to decouple the tasks involved in this workflow?
NetApp Ansible Automation Lab
Learn to automate NetApp ONTAP using Ansible. This lab provides an overview of GIT and Ansible to understand how they work together to simplify the automation of NetApp storage solutions.
Overview: Red Hat Ansible edge: Branch network lifecycle with Cisco Meraki
The traditional IT operations workflow has always relied on a process and procedure cycle that ultimately requires manual intervention to restore production services and resolve an active incident.
CICD for Automation Engineers
This lab is a component of the Infrastructure Automation Automated Testing learning path in the Infrastructure Automation with Ansible Learning Series. The goal of this learning path is to provide hands-on and practical exposure to the concepts of implementing Continuous Integration Continuous Delivery.
The lab will utilize Gitea as the Source Code Manager (SCM) which includes Gitea Actions for executing CICD Workflows. Gitea Actions map almost identically to GitHub actions so the Gitea specific knowledge gained maps directly to GitHub implementations. The general concepts learning through this lab are also valuable and applicable across other implementations.
