== Overview
|
|
Ansible Agnostic Deployer, AKA *AAD*, AKA *AgnosticD*, is a fully automated 2
|
Phase deployer for building and deploying everything from basic infrastructure
|
to fully configured running application environments running on either public
|
Cloud Providers or OpenShift clusters.
|
|
|
*AgnosticD* is not an OpenShift Deployer, though it can and does that, it is
|
however also a deployer that just happens to be used to deploy a lot of
|
OpenShift and OpenShift workloads, amongst other things.
|
|
=== Make your first Deployment
|
|
Check out this link:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lfHYwXJhKB0[Video Introduction to deploying with Ansible AgnosticD]!
|
|
There are many link:./ansible/configs[configs] you can choose from, here are three
|
that you can start with and modify to fit your needs:
|
|
* link:./ansible/configs/three-tier-app/README.adoc[Three Tier App] - Relatively
|
simple environment, which deploys by default just a bunch of Linux hosts ready
|
to be configured.
|
|
* link:./ansible/configs/ocp-workshop/README.adoc[OCP Workshop] - If a fully
|
installed OpenShift Cluster is what you are looking for then take a look here.
|
|
* link:./ansible/roles/ocp-workload-3scale-multitenant/readme.adoc[OpenShift 3Scale
|
Deployment] - Want to deploy a workload onto your existing OpenShift Cluster?
|
or local instance running on your laptop? 3Scale is an example of one of
|
around *30* OpenShift workloads ready to go.
|
|
=== How AgnosticD Deploys
|
|
* For OpenShift _Workloads_ *AgnosticD* executes an ansible *role* against an
|
existing OpenShift cluster. Roles can be found link:./ansible/roles/[here] and
|
begin `ocp-workload-*`.
|
|
* For _Configs_ each contain 5 deployment playbooks and supporting files executed
|
in sequence and combined with a Cloud Provider to deploy basic infrastructure
|
through to fully configured applications.

|
=== Getting Started
|
|
The accompanying documentation explains how to achieve all this, extend it and
|
add both your own environments, hereafter called _configs_ and a lot lot more.
|
Well designed _configs_, can be easily abstracted to allow deployment to multiple
|
different Public and Private Clouds including AWS, Azure, and others.
