Application Onboarding Overview

Application Onboarding is a modernized control panel for Developers to enable efficient application onboarding in a hybrid or multi-cloud environments. With Digital.ai Release 23.1, we are bringing in new self-service workflows so that Developers can onboard their applications easier with minimum knowledge of tools. Newly introduced workflows guide users through step-by-step execution of tasks, reducing complexity in setting up environments. Application Onboarding leverages cloud benefits such as scalability, availability, and optimizing applications for the cloud for improved performance and reliability. It also helps ensure adherence to cloud security and compliance best practices.

Connect to Deploy Servers

This topic describes how to connect Release to Deploy servers, enabling seamless integration for deployment automation.

Deploy Plugin

The Deploy plugin for Release allows you to start a control task or to start a deployment of an application on Deploy. It also provides the functionality to trigger undeployment of an application already deployed on Deploy.

Deploy Tasks

The Deploy task provides integration with Deploy, the Application Release Automation solution as part of the DevOps Platform. It is an automated task that triggers the deployment of an application to an environment in Deploy. Both the application and environment must be configured in Deploy. The task provides live updates of the deployment process and completes automatically when the deployment succeeds.

Install—Deploy or Release—On-premise Kubernetes

Important: Use these instructions to install Digital.ai Deploy or Release on a minikube multi-node cluster for testing or illustration purposes. Do not use these instructions to set up a production environment.

Live Deployments in Release

The Live Deployments feature enables you to track deployments from various sources and embed them in your release process. Previously, only deployments that were started from a task in the release process were known in Release. You can now listen to deployment events from external tools like Digital.ai Deploy and ArgoCD and view live updates in Release. All the deployment activities are on the same page, whether it comes from cloud-native Kubernetes environments or classic middleware. Additionally, you can make the external deployments part of the release flow, even when they are not orchestrated by Release.

Octopus Deploy Plugin

This topic introduces the Octopus Deploy Plugin for Release, which facilitates integration with Octopus Deploy for managing deployments within release pipelines.

Plan Your Installation or Upgrade

You use the XL CLI's xl kube command to install or upgrade Digital.ai Deploy or Release, or Release Runner. For more information, see XL Kube Command Reference.

Set up Workflows for Onboarding Applications

Workflows are a combination of tasks that can be executed in an interactive session, with pre-built best practices. Once you have this setup in place, all you would be doing is to select the workflows from the self-service catalog and execute them in step-by-step view to interactively setup applications in Argo CD and Deploy.

Setup Custom Image Registry

In this article, you will learn how to set up a custom image registry to install or upgrade Release. A custom image registry can either be public (not password protected) or private (password protected).

Trust an Deploy server's certificate

This topics provides information about creating and configuring a truststore, importing certificates, and adjusting Release settings to ensure secure communication with the Deploy server.

View the Live Status of Deployed Applications

Note: Live Status of Deployed Applications is a feature in Tech Preview—released in Digital.ai Release 22.3—enabled by default. You must disable this feature (using the feature flag) if you do not want to use it.

Workflow to Delete Application in Argo CD

The objective is to illustrate how to use the ArgoCD delete application workflow in Digital.ai Release to delete an application in Argo CD that runs in a Kubernetes cluster.

Workflow to Update Application in Argo CD

The objective is to illustrate how to use the ArgoCD update application workflow in Digital.ai Release to update an application in Argo CD that runs in a Kubernetes cluster.

Workflows Overview

With Digital.ai Release 23.3, we are bringing in new self-service workflows so that Developers can onboard their applications easier with minimum knowledge of tools. Newly introduced workflows guide users through step-by-step execution of tasks, reducing complexity in setting up environments. It leverages cloud benefits such as scalability, availability, and optimizing applications for the cloud for improved performance and reliability.
