The platform currently supports a local VirtualBox network, Amazon Web Services (AWS), and Google Cloud Platform (GCP). The tool can run Ansible playbooks of various applications for installation on the deployed or imported infrastructure. Many sample Ansible playbooks have already been provided, forming a basis on which to extend the framework.
A Docker module allows you to install the Docker daemon and client on arbitrary virtual machine (VM) instances and use the same Ansible playbooks to deploy software into
