Introduction to CloudForms

Red Hat CloudForms is an infrastructure management platform that offers a consistent way to track costs, control resource allocation, and ensure compliance across all your networked environments. Manage Virtual Machines, containers, and your clouds in the same way with a single tool.

In this lab we will focus on he Ansible features provided by CloudForms. We will setup the Embedded Ansible role, create Service Catalog Items for Ansible Playbooks, and demonstrate how the CloudForms UI can be extended with custom menus and buttons.
