Deployment Automation Supports:

• Packaging software
• Managing configuration
• Testing install/update
• Deploying/maintaining

production systems Integrated process:

• Seamless
• Continuous
• Reliable

Why Use Deploy?

• Complete

– Installation and Update – Desktops and Servers – Applications, Configuration and Operating Systems – Physical, Virtual and Cloud – Automated Testing

• Standard

– Integrates with Existing Deployment Infrastructure

• Open

– Open Source, Nonprofit, Vendor-Neutral – Flexible Platform

How Does Deploy Work?

• 1. Write a definition

– Everything needed to build, test, deploy and maintain a system – Start with templates for config, testing, and deployment

• 2. Run Deploy

– Command line

www.deployproject.org Deploy Project 5

# deploy web-server.definition

web-server.definition

<main>… <repos>… <config-rpms>… <test-install>… <test-update>… <publish>…

Step 2: Tests System Installation and Updates Step 1: Creates a System Repository Step 3: Deploys Production Systems Step 4: Updates Production Systems Test Package Deploy Maintain

Step 1: Creates a System Repository

• Essentially a “mini OS

distribution”

– Packages – Installation images

• Everything needed to

install and update a system reliably

System Repository install.img

Step 2: Tests Installation and Updates

• Creates test machines

– Test Install – Test Update

• Uses deployment templates

– Environment specific (physical, virtual, cloud) – Install, delete, update, etc.

• Runs test scripts

– Package installation, updates and removal – User-provided scripts

Test Install Test Update

Step 3: Deploys to Production Systems

• Publishes system repository

to a web server location

• Users can…

– Deploy as usual

• Network installation, DVD,

Enterprise management system, etc. Or

• Use Deploy to automate

deployment

Deploy Publish

Step 4: Updates Production Systems

• As time goes on…

– Rerun Deploy to update system repository

• Users can…

– Rely on YUM to pull updates on scheduled basis

Or

– Use Deploy to push updates

• Yum “sync” plugin

– Replicates packages from system repository to production machines
