Automation Overview​

Managing SSL certificates across dozens of PI Vision and PI Web API servers can be a complex and error-prone process. This blog post explores a comprehensive approach to automate SSL certificate provisioning and deployment using Terraform, Ansible, and CI/CD pipelines, specifically focusing on AWS Private CA and ACM for certificate management.

Deploying SSL certificates is a critical yet challenging aspect of managing secure connections across multiple servers. Manual processes can be prone to errors and time-consuming. Automation becomes essential to streamline the deployment, rotation, and overall management of SSL certificates. In this context, we'll delve into leveraging the power of AWS ACM along with Terraform and Ansible for an efficient and automated solution.

Welcome to Mainely Innovations​

We are dedicated to providing solutions that extend the capabilities of the AVEVA / OSIsoft PI ecosystem. Our goal is to enable open-source development of PI Vision custom symbols and scripts to help automate common and even less routine tasks required for the administration of the PI system.

We believe that there is a lot of flexibility in extending the base layer of the PI System and that providing common functionality to consumers of PI is valuable. That's why we want to make these common tasks and basic PI Vision extensibility open-source, as there is minimal value in paying for these services and the functionality should be usable by the consumers of the PI System.
