webMethods DevOps Portfolio

Automated deployment infrastructure for Software AG webMethods Command Central

This project demonstrates end-to-end automation for deploying webMethods Command Central (CCE) and Platform Manager (SPM) using modern DevOps practices.

Features

• Infrastructure as Code: Terraform for AWS provisioning
• Configuration Management: Ansible playbooks for automated installation
• Containerization: Docker with Supervisor for local development
• Multi-environment: Local (Vagrant/Docker) and Cloud (AWS)
• Full automation: Zero manual intervention deployment

Quick Start

Option 1: Docker (Fastest)

# Start all services
docker compose up -d

# Check status
docker compose exec sagwm-cc supervisorctl status

# Access Command Central
open http://localhost:8090/cce/web
# Login: Administrator / manage123

Option 2: Vagrant (Full VM)

# Start VM with provisioning
vagrant up

# SSH into the VM
vagrant ssh

# Access Command Central
open http://localhost:8090/cce/web

Option 3: AWS (Production-like)

cd terraform

# Initialize and deploy
terraform init
terraform apply

# Get the public URL
terraform output command_central_url
