Introduction to the Automation Portal
The Automation Portal is an easy to implement self-service front end for your automation solutions. It offers a versatile interface without the lengthy list of prerequisites required by many other self-service portals available today.
The Automation Portal ethos is to “keep things simple and flexible”. The portal has been designed to complement existing Automation platforms. The Automation Portal has been designed with System Center Orchestrator and Azure Automation in mind, however it equally complements any automation platform or scripting language that can read and write to the Automation Portal database.
Integration with the automation tools takes place via the Automation portal database and with Orchestrator and Azure Automation is most easily achieved using the Kelverion integrations for SQL Server and in the case of Orchestrator the Data Manipulation IP as well.
The Automation Portal is simple and fast to implement, but even more importantly it’s easy for your end users to navigate. By adding a simple web interface to your runbooks you can allow users to easily interact with your automated offerings.
