Automic Announces New Microsoft Azure Action Pack
February 08, 2016
Automic announced the delivery of a new Microsoft Azure Action Pack.
The new plug-in integrates with Automic’s Application Release Automation and Service Orchestration tools. Available from the Automic Marketplace, this new integration allows Automic customers to control Azure resources and applications from within their central automation platform.
The Azure Action Pack:
- Extends users’ ability to automate actions for creating, reading, updating and deleting Azure resources including virtual machines, storage containers, blobs, cloud services, virtual networks, files and Azure deployments.
- Allows customers to build visual workflows to fully automate all of their Azure services – giving back valuable time to developers and administrators, while also assuring a reduction in errors throughout the entire process.
- Empowers users to orchestrate and automate their application and infrastructure lifecycles to provide Continuous Delivery of new applications or upgrades into the cloud on Microsoft Azure.
“We are delighted to offer our newly released Azure Action Pack to customers who seek to operate their Continuous Delivery pipeline into Microsoft Azure”, said John Purrier, CTO of Automic. “This package ensures that our customers are able to seamlessly integrate their automation and orchestration needs for improved user experience, while controlling their entire pipeline in the cloud”.
Further, integrating Azure with Automic's Application Release Automation and Service Orchestration enables enterprises to:
- Ease the efforts of DevOps engineers, developers and system administrators to create, deploy, and run fully automated Azure deployments workflows from within Automic, through the API or as preapproved service desk requests.
- Seamless promotion of versioned components from TFS through to production
- Ensure automated rollbacks in case of need
- Augment containers with code components and meta-data and ship as one coherent deployable package that is promoted from environment to environment, automatically.
- Standardize an Azure best practice for application deployments and avoid expensive cloud sprawl by ensuring provisioning and guaranteed de-provisioning of cloud resources
