Seamless deployment of SaaS provider applications to kyma environments

Description

Seamless deployment of SaaS provider applications to kyma environments The rehearsed automation use case, part of kyma cli effort, is as follows:

• a BTP trial account with a default trial subaccount (= service provider)

• ArgoCD service deployed either on SAP's or on customer's devops landscape

  • OIDC automation with SAP IAS application service (optional)
  • Kyma provisioning automation with a cis-local service
  • download kubeconfig (from the cis payload) or/and create a service account
  • link ArgoCD to this new kyma cluster (via automation)
  • deploy a BTP multi-tenant application to kyma cluster with ArgoCD automation

Reasons / Value proposition / Success criteria

• BTP Kyma Runtime development.
• Solution architecture and adoption.
• Seamless deployment of SaaS provider applications to kyma environments.

This scenario is showcasing the usage of SAP BTP services with the kyma runtime environment with the focus on the synergy/share-ability/portability with all the other BTP services with the aim of simplifying the housekeeping of multi-tenant SaaS applications.

By design, this eliminates the need of any human interaction with a kyma cluster; The SaaS application provider runs the automation scripts and SaaS solution becomes ready for consumers from the get-go.

The automation routine itself might be delivered as a BTP trial booster application, or, eventually, could be implemented as an internal BTP service (similar to SAP BTP ArgoCDaaS)

Alternatively, the automation scripts can be made public on SAP Samples with instructions how to assemble them into a routine.
