Watsonx.ai SaaS with Assistant and Governance Deployable Architecture

The Watsonx.ai SaaS with Assistant and Governance Deployable Architecture is designed to automate the deployment and configuration of the IBM watsonx platform in an IBM Cloud account. The IBM watsonx platform is made of several services working together to offer AI capabilities to end users, who can explore them using IBM watsonx projects.

In addition, this deployable architecture configures a starter project for an IBM Cloud user.

Overview

terraform-ibm-watsonx-saas-da

The solution supports the following:

Creating a new resource group, or using an existing one.
Provisioning the following services:
- Watson Machine Learning
- Watson Studio
- Cloud Object Storage.
Configuring the IBM watsonx profile and creating a starter IBM watsonx project. for an IBM Cloud user, who becomes the admin of the IBM watsonx project.

As result the IBM watsonx admin can log into IBM watsonx in the target account and start experimenting with the starter project.

Optionally, the solution supports:

Enabling the storage delegation for the provisioned Cloud Object Storage instance using your own encryption keys with Key Protect.
Provisioning of one or more of the services, with a selectable service plan:
- watsonx.data
- watsonx Orchestrate
- watsonx.governance
- watsonx Assistant
- Watson Discovery.

Required IAM access policies

The following permissions are required to deploy this solution.

Administrator role on All Account Management services to create a new resource group, and to enable storage delegation for the Cloud Object Storage instance.
Manager service role on the Key Protect instance used for storage delegation.
Editor platform role on Watson Machine Learning to create and delete the service.
Editor platform role on Watson Studio to create or delete the service.
Editor platform role on Cloud Object Storage to create and delete the service.
Editor platform role on watsonx.data if you must provision.
Editor platform role on watsonx Orchestrate if you must provision.
Editor platform role on watsonx.governance if you must provision.
Editor platform role on watsonx Assistant if you must provision.
Editor platform role on Watson Discovery if you must provision.

The IBM watsonx administrator needs the following permissions:

Administrator role on All Account Management services.
Administrator role on All Identity and Access enabled services.
Manager service role on Cloud Object Storage to create service credentials. That is not needed if you configure storage delegation.

You can use the IBM provided IAM Access Group Terraform Module to configure deployers and watsonx admins access groups and add members to them.
