Astra Group has introduced a new version of the corporate platform Astra Automation 2.0. Version 2.0 features a Unified UI - all key tools are gathered in one window. Deployment in Kubernetes has become available. The platform is easily scalable and integrates into cloud architectures - growing with the business load. The option to install on bare-metal or VM also remains, providing flexibility in choosing resources for deploying the platform.
A reliable installation and update mechanism (Fast-Fail) has also been implemented. Before starting, the system automatically checks important parameters: free space, node availability, write permissions, and configuration correctness. If something is wrong, the process does not start and shows how to fix it. This saves time and reduces the risk of failures. Kirill Dobrynin, Director of the Automation Department at Astra Group, explained:
Astra Automation 2.0 is about infrastructure manageability in an environment of expensive capital. We have combined control in a single interface, supported Kubernetes, and added Fast-Fail to the installation. As a result, companies accelerate changes, reduce operational risks, and achieve a tangible effect without excessive investment.
