Semaphore UI is a modern web interface for managing DevOps tools. It enables users to:
- Run Ansible, Terraform/OpenTofu, Bash, and PowerShell scripts.
- Get notifications on failed tasks.
- Control access to the deployment system.
Semaphore has many more capabilities than described here.
Key Aspects of Semaphore:
- Projects Groups of related resources and configurations.
- Task Templates Reusable job definitions that can be run or scheduled.
- Tasks Specific executions of jobs.
- Schedules Automate task execution at set times.
- Inventory List of target systems (e.g., servers, VMs).
