This article introduces AWS CloudFormation, IBM Cloud Orchestrator, and RedHat Ansible.

Powerful orchestration tools

At present, there are many mature orchestration tools on the market. Cloud deployment scenarios are divided into public cloud, private cloud, hybrid cloud and multi-cloud. The o&M deployment phase is divided into cloud resource infrastructure deployment management and application deployment management.

Platforms that provide choreography generally provide infrastructure-as-code (IaC) services. Here are several choreography tools that can be reliably used in different scenarios.

3.1 the AWS CloudFormation

AWS is not only a pioneer in providing cloud infrastructure, but also the largest cloud market share provider. It serves as a platform for creating, configuring, and managing collections of AWS and external resources in an orderly, repeatable, and predictable manner. With AWS CloudFormation, you can deploy a wide range of traditional and modern applications.

3.2 the IBM Cloud Orchestrator

If you want to use policy-based tools through a self-service portal when configuring, deploying, integrating, and adding service management to your orchestration workflow, the IBM Orchestrator platform is the ideal choice. Using this tool, you can orchestrate workflows across hybrid, public, and private clouds.

3.3 RedHat Ansible

The Ansible Automation platform is a role-based access enterprise platform for organization-wide automation. You can control your infrastructure with visual interfaces, human-readable automated languages, and reusable content. Ansible also provides precomposed roles so that your IT staff can easily use IT.
