To demonstrate a deployment of a (very) simple web application, several job templates are provided:
| Job Template | Description |
|---|---|
| Operations - Deploy new Virtual Machine | Deploy a new VM or instance on the selected provider |
| Development - Install and Setup Tomcat | Development - Deploy WebApp |
| Operations - Base configuration | Apply base Operating System configuration |
| Operations - Open Firewall Port | Open an unprivileged port on the firewall (only works with GCP) |
| Operations - Tomcat Compliance Check | Verify Tomcat Directory permissions |
The Ansible Playbooks can be found in the playbook-tomcat-dev and playbook-tomcat-ops repositories on GitLab.
Consider using this part of the demo together with instructions from the RBAC Demo
Make sure to enable the Tomcat Use Case.
Considerations before running the demo:
a new instance is deployed which makes your demo more expensive
keep in mind deploying the instance will take will take a minute or two, make sure you have something to talk about while the instance is created
don’t forget to delete the instance when you’re done
there will be no DNS record for the Tomcat instance
Run the job templates in the following order:
Operations - Deploy new Virtual Machine
Development - Install and Setup Tomcat
Operations - Base configuration
Operations - Open Firewall Port (only on GCP)
Operations - Tomcat Compliance Check
