Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform

Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform extends Ansible into an enterprise automation platform for teams, governance, centralized execution and operating processes.

ForgeOne supports controller architecture, execution environments, automation hub, RBAC, credentials, workflows, APIs, lifecycle, support processes and migration of existing automation.

ForgeOne designs and integrates Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform with controller, execution environments, automation hub, RBAC, credentials and APIs.

Use cases

The following scenarios are common entry points, not mandatory modules.

Controller & workflows

Execution environments & content

Execution environments and automation hub help deliver content in a controlled way.

Governance & APIs

RBAC, audit, APIs and lifecycle processes make automation suitable for teams.

What ForgeOne delivers

ForgeOne connects product decision, architecture, implementation, migration and operations. This includes standards, documentation, tests, secrets, CI/CD or GitOps integration, monitoring, backup and handover to the operations team.

The focus is maintainable operating models rather than isolated tool installation.
