AppSide is a multitenant environment automation tool based on Ansible.

AppSide is your transparent platform that incorporates the various digital infrastructures into a continuous workflow. At the same time, it creates a consistent environment for the entire development process, saving time and money. AppSide is an open source developer and DevOps application that maps the entire development process (continuous deployment & provisioning) from development to test & staging to production. This ensures that the systems being managed on the different infrastructures are deployed in the same way. At the same time, AppSide creates a consistent environment (on-premise, in the cloud or on bare metal) throughout the development process. The administrators and developers (DevOps) can therefore independently control the entire toolchain. The automation process is created using Ansible playbooks and contains the admin and developer code, which is stored in a git repository (encrypted). The code (AppSide) runs on any UNIX-like operating system where Python can run, including Linux, BSD, and OSX. Orchestration of the AppSide code requires only SSH access to the respective systems. AppSide has been designed and optimized from DevOps for DevOps.

• Easy server provisioning with Ansible <http://www.ansible.com/>__ (Ubuntu 16.04, PHP 5.6/7)

Technologies

The technology behind AppSide uses countless best-in-class programs and maps them in a toolbox. The software accesses an extensive repository of various freeware packages. Out-of-the-box, many enterprise features already exist, such as:

• Load balancing
• Apache / PHP
• Web Accelerator / Caching / PageSpeed
• Distributed file system
• Master-Master Database
• Backup & Monitoring Integration
• Jailkit - chroot
• ...

Installation

AppSide is hosted on PiP using python3. ``pip3 install appside`` will
install appside. To start using it you first need to *initialize* it:
``appside init`` follow the onscreen instructions to set it up!
