This article describes how telecommunications providers can scale automation to manage millions of home router devices using Managed Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform (AAP) on AWS and Red Hat OpenShift Service on AWS (ROSA).
- AAP provides centralized automation orchestration with separated control and execution planes
- ROSA delivers managed Kubernetes infrastructure across multiple AWS regions and availability zones
- Execution nodes run as container pods on ROSA, dynamically scaling during automation bursts
- Horizontal Pod Autoscaler detects resource spikes and triggers automatic pod scaling
- ROSA Cluster Autoscaler provisions additional EC2 worker nodes when pods are pending
- Unused worker nodes automatically terminate after jobs complete, optimizing costs
- Kubernetes Resource Quotas and AWS Service Quotas set scaling boundaries
- Architecture enables managing millions of devices with cost efficiency and high availability
This solution combines AAP's split architecture with ROSA's managed scaling to deliver elastic, cost-efficient automation at massive scale for telecommunications infrastructure.
