Abstract:
Discussed are DevOps systems, methods, and apparatuses that provide a solution for organizing, reporting, and facilitating the automation of deploying infrastructure, platform, and application code for an IT enterprise. A logical data model for organizing components of the DevOps approach may include inventories for systems, environments, applications, resources, and deployments. A set of components may be built to provide an organizational structure to collect, report, and facilitate the automation of applications and the deployments of those applications across the enterprise. An artifact inventory may be used to request a deployment of specific versions of artifacts to an environment, providing a complete picture of what the environment should contain after a deployment. This inventory may be linked to business-level system inventory tracking as well as low-level computing resource tracking to provide a complete picture of total cost of ownership.
