Scale with automation mesh in a containerized or VM environment
Run automation on different execution nodes across your data center, clouds, or remote sites with automation mesh.
For RPM or Containerized VM-based Ansible Automation Platform you use an installation program to set up automation mesh or to upgrade automation mesh. To provide Ansible Automation Platform with details about the nodes, groups, and peer relationships in your mesh network, you define them in an the inventory file in the installer bundle.
- Edit the inventory file
You can use the Ansible Automation Platform installer inventory file to specify your installation scenario. - Design patterns for mesh
The automation mesh topologies in this section provide examples you can use to design a mesh deployment in your environment. Examples range from a simple, hydrid node deployment to a complex pattern that deploys numerous automation controller instances, employing several execution and hop nodes.
