IBM® UrbanCode Deploy,
Version 6.0 includes several new functions and enhancements.
What's new
- The new resource model provides drag-and-drop efficiency for managing
resources. You can organize agents, components, and deployment configurations
by arranging them in a visual hierarchy. Resources can be tagged with
identifiers that can be used in application processes. See Resources.
- The new team-based security model provides both flexibility and
pinpoint control of the security system. Team members are assigned
roles consisting of permissions granted from the many security types.
If the default security types do not match your needs, you can create
additional types. Only teams assigned to user-created objects, such
as environments, can manage them. See Security teams.
- The following new plug-ins provide integrations with other software
products:
- The IBM Worklight® plug-in provides support for
deploying mobile application artifacts to IBM Worklight Server
Version 6.0.0. See Worklight plug-in.
- The Middleware Configuration for WebSphere® plug-in provides support for
deploying configuration templates of IBM WebSphere Application Server.
See Middleware Configuration for WebSphere plug-in.
- The IBM Rational® Asset Manager plug-in
includes steps that create, download, upload, and categorize assets
in Rational Asset Manager.
See Rational Asset Manager plug-in.
- The Chef plug-in lets you run Chef recipes and roles on target
systems. See Chef plug-in.
- The Green Hat plug-in provides support for automating functional,
integration, and performance tests of applications with IBM Rational Test Workbench.
See Green Hat plug-in.
- The IBM Rational Quality Manager plug-in
includes steps that run tests and test suites in Rational Quality Manager.
See Rational Quality Manager plug-in.
- The WebSphere Application Server
Liberty Profile plug-in
includes steps that work with the WebSphere Application Server
Liberty Profile.
See WebSphere Application Server Liberty Profile plug-in.
- If you connect IBM UrbanCode Deploy to
a cloud system, you can provision environments and install agents
automatically. See Creating dynamic environments from cloud systems.
- If you have a system that includes WebSphere Application Server,
you can import information about that system as resources. Then you
can add those resources to an environment to speed up the population
of the environment. See Importing resources from WebSphere Application Server.
