RWS GIS Automation Platform
System context diagram for RWS GIS Automation Platform which is based on the C2 Platform approach and runs within the RWS domain on the Red Hat Automation Platform (AAP).
Category: C4
Operating the GIS Platform using Ansible
The diagram on this page visualizes how LCM and TAM tasks of the GIS platform are performed using Ansible. Two key components are the Ansible Inventory Project hosted by Azure DevOps and the Ansible Execution Environment ( EE ) hosted by GitLab.
Engineering the GIS Platform using Ansible
This diagram visualizes the Ansible engineering of Ansible content. Use the standard C2 Platform approach this is completely done in the open source domain utilizing local development and a open source “reference implementation” of the GIS Platform.
Engineering using a "pseudo" Development Environment
Engineering of Ansible collections and roles is also performed within the RWS Domain / DC. This is considered “engineering light” because it utilizes a “pseudo” development environment resets, restores of VM’s and snapshots cannot be performed easily.
