Introduction

Infra Cloud Providers offer the infrastructure on which you create clusters, set up your networks, firewall rules, load balancers, and virtual machines.

This module provides the ability to Link Infrastructure Cloud Provider that you would like SOAJS to use to deploy your environments & components on.

Once you Connect your Infra Provider, you can use templates which contains instructions on how to deploy a cluster along with the network, firewall rules, load balancer .....

While creating an environment, pick the provider and the template and SOAJS will orchestrate setting up the infrastructure on this provider as per the template and deploy your environment.

Modify:

You can always modify the credentials of the infra cloud provider you connected with, simply click on Edit and update the details.

Upon Activating or Modifying an Infra Provider, SOAJS authenticates the credentials to ensure that it can use them at a later stage.

Deactivate:

Deactivating an Infra Provider, unplugs it from SOAJS but does not temper with its information at origin meaning if you deactivate your AWS account, for example, SOAJS only removes it from the SOAJS Console but the API Key and Token at AWS are still functional. To deactivate the key and the token, you need to do that personally at AWS and the same applies to other providers.

If you deactivate an infra account, all Infra Code Templates store locally will be removed as well.

You cannot deactivate an infra account that is hosting deployments, remove the deployments first, then deactivate the infra account.
