Infrastructure Manager

Infrastructure Manager is an extension to the core solutions of the Automic system. Infrastructure Manager provides an automated and repeatable way for you to create a new environment in any infrastructure provider, populate the environment with the correct middleware, and install a version of an application. The new application is then fully functional in your newly created environment.

The provisioning process combines the capabilities of Terraform, an open source infrastructure provisioning tool, with middleware provisioning tools (like Chef, Puppet, Ansible, and so on), and the Automic system.

You can use the Infrastructure Manager to provision any resources that are exposed by Terraform providers.

Encrypted Password Support

Following Broadcom's efforts to permanently increase the security of its products, as of this version administrators can encrypt the REST passwords by specifying the rest-user and rest-password in the im-connection.properties configuration file.
