Embotics Ecosystem Integrations

In many cases 1+1 really does equal 3, and the combined value of Embotics' automation capabilities coupled with the particular application of your choosing, makes for a superior solution for your consumers of IT services.

Public/Private Clouds

Embotics provides a single pane of glass by working in parallel with your existing public and private cloud infrastructure, including VMware vSphere, Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft® Azure, Google Cloud Platform, Kubernetes and Microsoft® Hyper-V SCVMM. The real-time platform is designed to be public cloud– and hypervisor-independent. Embotics supports both greenfield and brownfield deployments, so you don’t have to change any existing architecture.

Configuration / DevOps / IaC

Chef, Puppet, Ansible and SaltStack are becoming de-facto tools in the arsenal of development teams adopting a DevOps model. Embotics' Service Catalog blueprints provides deep integrations with these solutions, thus enabling IT to make either hard-coded or a la carte application offerings to their development community. Embotics also integrates with CFT, ARM, Terraform, and Google Deployment Manager, allowing access to PaaS services which gives users the ability to use existing service definitions rather than starting from scratch with Embotics.

Networking / IP Address Management (IPAM)

The Embotics provisioning engine pulls IP information from the IPAM solution to provide static IPs for your workloads. When manually provisioning a workload, an Embotics administrator has full control over network configuration for the deployed workload.

Containers

Containers are first class objects in the Embotics service catalog along with Microservice application blueprints in the service catalog. Auto-scaling, auto-HA, software maintenance are management features making it faster and easier to deploy microservices based applications.

Application Monitoring

Combining third-party guest OS performance data with VM performance metrics from the hypervisor allows Embotics to provide more accurate rightsizing recommendations for your virtualized infrastructure—without burdening the Embotics system with intensive data storage and data processing requirements.

Authentication

You’re already leveraging Active Directory (AD) or LDAP, in some cases with extensive complexity in the area of groups of domains. Embotics can leverage existing AD groups to provide multi-tenant RBAC for different departments or organizations. If you’re looking for seamless user experience with single sign-on (SSO), Embotics also comes with SAML2 WebSSO and Windows SSO.

Notification

When you configure policies in Embotics, special events are recorded when something triggers policy enforcement (for example your compliance policy could enforce that a "role" attribute be configured for each VM, and trigger when no role has been entered). These events are called alerts. In addition, an audit log is kept in the Alerts and Events tabs for the objects involved (from the managed system level down to the VM level). You can also configure several policies to send out notifications.

Service Desk & ITSM

Embotics provides its own ticketing system, while at the same time it can be integrated with any current system you have. Ticket information can flow in one or both directions, with approvals occurring in either system, and Embotics performing the underlying provisioning automation. Embotics can also populate and update CI’s in your CMDB when workloads are provisioned, decommissioned or modified. Our team of cloud automation experts can provide best practice recommendations based on our extensive industry experience. 

IT Services / Backup / DR

You may be leveraging best-in-class tools like Zerto for disaster recovery (DR) or Veeam for regularly scheduled backups. Embotics provides the ability to integrate these in your automated data center deployments. In fact, any third party solution that has an API can be easily integrated into Embotics orchestration.

Platform-as-a-Service

Embotics enables you to provision complete applications and multi-tier services, leveraging its extensive catalog blueprint capabilities and orchestration engine. 

Script

Embotics allows you to use any scripting language you want, be it PowerShell, Perl, Shell or anything else. This allows you to leverage any previous automation investments you have made.
