System life cycle using astroll IT Automation
astroll IT Automation Overview
Centrally manage IaCs and parameters from multiple user interfaces
With astroll you can centrally manage the parameters to be input into the system using astroll's web user interface, spreadsheets (Excel), or a machine interface (Rest API).
Modularizing and managing IaCs for improved reusability
astroll helps you to modularize and manage IaCs.
When you use astroll to build a system automatically, astroll joins together the modularized IaCs to create a workflow, and combines that workflow with the parameters to execute.
This allows you to take generic IaCs, modularize them, and reuse them in various workflows.
Automation software execution management with astroll IT Automation
The IaCs that make up the workflow are executed by appropriate automation software, such as ANSIBLE. You can choose which automation software to use based on the system integration you want to execute and the features of the automation software.

You can monitor the execution status of automation software in real time using astroll's interface.
A hold point can be placed in the middle of your workflow and you can also perform an emergency stop if an unexpected event occurs during workflow execution.
astroll generates execution logs and reports failed or successful executions.
