Scalability and Reliability of the Automation mesh for the Edge and Hybrid Cloud

The Complete Infrastructure & Hybrid Cloud Automation Guide | Cloudify

It might be difficult to scale automation across several teams, platforms, and regions. It can be challenging to provide a single solution for all use cases because each region, environment, and technology may have unique, specialized automation requirements. So how can IT companies automate tasks more consistently while maintaining centralized platform management? Furthermore, how can they automate endpoints in isolated locations with poor connectivity?

Automation at scale has comparable requirements: Organizations must deliver and run automation closer to the devices that need it, much like edge computing necessitates bringing multiple compute resources closer to the endpoints.

The recent re-architecture of the Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform brought about significant capabilities that enable users to operate more dependable and consistent automation at a vast scale throughout the whole hybrid cloud, including the edge.

Of these capabilities, automation mesh helps to reimagine how businesses automate by combining the strength of open source innovation with the strategic goals of our customers. Now, IT companies can extend automation more adaptable as edge environments expand and demands change, wherever necessary. With the help of automation mesh, IT professionals can now apply at the edge across geographically scattered endpoints what they can with localized automation execution on-premise. Automation mesh helps companies deploy automation to a wider range of use cases by bringing automation closer to the target endpoints and improving resilience to network latency and connection failures.

Bringing IT Departments together by Reducing Operational costs

The goal of Automation Mesh is to streamline operations by lowering the administrative cost of managing multi-site deployments. Although there are inherent difficulties in scaling technology, there are also other factors to take into account. Expanding up and out requires more staff, with a range of knowledge and experience, to handle increased workloads. To make it simpler to onboard new team members and support businesses regardless of where they are in their automation journeys, operations can easily standardize and normalize automation across the whole IT estate using automation mesh.

Increasing capacity while minimizing downtime

Automation mesh enables companies to scale and manage capacity more quickly where businesses need it, with little to no downtime, as resource consumption needs change throughout the year. But to simply put Complex systems will occasionally experience downtime. To optimally route and execute automation traffic, the automation mesh continuously checks the capacity and execution health. Automation is made more resilient to interruptions like network outages or misconfigurations because of this feature and its flexible, redundant design options, which improve service delivery to the business and the customer.

Automation as a business-driver

Ansible Automation Platform is now a hybrid cloud automation solution that is genuinely cloud-native thanks to the new platform architecture. To meet customers where they want to be—whether in cloud marketplaces, managed service providers, or their datacenters—Automation Mesh provides global, enterprise-wide automation. Most importantly, businesses can rely on the Ansible Automation Platform’s ongoing developments to support their strategic goals and let them focus on the future while still providing clients with the automation framework they require now with enhanced security.
