What happens when teams need to consume each other’s services? How to implement least privilege, separation of concerns? Where do you start when there’s an outage, who’s responsible?

Scaling with Terraform with OneFuse: NamingStreamline, simplify TF plans with OneFuseCurrent pain points Duplicating TF plans Scaling generation of unique,standardized human readablenames across deployments Disruptions due to conflicts– simplify, drive names with parameters instead– utilize sequencing and validations, parameterenforcement, templating provided by the namingpolicy– drive standards across environments, clouds,deployments– view generated names in one place, by policy– store generated names as resources in TF state

Demo recap – OneFuse Benefits – Naming Service Sequencing – the art of providing unique names Numeric and Pattern Types, Re-use Unique key Flexibility through Templating Naming Standard Sequencing Validation External validations Centralized storage, tracking and visibility Dashboard Jobs Naming Policy Centralized Management Compliance Bring it all together – sequencing, standards, validatorsGet started! Define your policy Choose one or more automation tools(Hashi, vRA, etc.) Configure and consume!
How OneFuse is removing the barriers to 100% AutomationProvide modular, configuration-based automation for low-level components and servicesDe-coupling integrations into API-consumable policiesDynamic, templatable with flexible parametersDesigned to complement and extend existing automation tools and scriptsDesigned to be driven by upstream automation tools, scripts and orchestratorsPortability within and between upstream tools and platformsFocus on consumability, manageability, ease of useDon’t require the consumer to know too much about the details of the underlyinginfrastructure/serviceEasy to manage: configuration-based vs custom-developed
How OneFuse improves security posture, compliance and governanceOneFuse role-based access control and policy model simplifies and improvessecurity postureLimit who can create and execute policiesPolicies are restrictive to portions and specific use cases of theendpoint/serviceVisibility into all objects created/destroyed via policyVisibility into jobs with relationship to those policies, callingAPI/tools/users, inputs/outputs
