What is a DevOps admin panel?

A DevOps admin panel allows DevOps teams to manage and monitor various aspects of the DevOps workflow.

What are the common features of a DevOps admin panel?

ArrowSmDown 16px

DevOps admin panels typically provide features such as real-time monitoring, automated deployment tools, and integration with various tools and services used in a DevOps environment, such as version control systems, continuous integration tools, and cloud infrastructure providers.

A deeper look into common features of DevOps admin panels:

  • Deployment management: for example, triggering deployments, rolling back deployments, and viewing deployment history.

  • Infrastructure management: including provisioning and scaling resources, monitoring resource utilization, and viewing infrastructure status.

  • Continuous integration and delivery (CI/CD) management: The ability to manage and monitor the CI/CD pipeline including building and testing code, managing dependencies, and triggering deployments.

  • Logging and monitoring: for viewing and analyzing log files, and monitoring system performance and availability.

  • Security management: to ensure proper access control and user management and to view and analyze security logs.

  • Alerting and notifications: for specific events, such as deployment failures or infrastructure issues.

Why build a DevOps admin panel?

  • Customization: Build a GUI tailored to fit your unique needs and workflows. Stop trying to adapt to pre-built solutions. Build any specialized functionality; get, view, and present data the way you want; let yours end users interact with it with a simple UI; and make your admin panel as feature-rich or simple as you need for your specific needs.

  • Integration: Integrate with various tools and services used in a DevOps environment, such as version control systems, continuous integration tools, and cloud infrastructure providers. Appsmith’s native integrations or connections via REST APIs make this a cakewalk.

  • Control: Have more control over the development, maintenance and upgrades of your admin panel. Developers get all the control they want while building and shipping tools with our low-code, open-source product.

  • Flexibility: Build an admin panel you won’t need to rebuild in a year. Easily adapt to changing requirements, internal processes, and new and upcoming tools and technologies.

  • Compliance and regulations: Build your admin panel to adhere to specific compliance and regulatory requirements of your company, providing a more secure way to store and manage sensitive data.

What are the challenges of building a DevOps admin panel?

ArrowSmDown 16px

  • Complexity: DevOps workflows are complex and include multiple stages and processes, such as continuous integration, continuous deployment, and infrastructure management, and more. Building a custom admin panel that covers all of these stages and integrates with your organization's existing systems can be a complex and time-consuming task.

  • Integrations: Integrating your DevOps admin panel with other internal systems or tools, such as monitoring systems, custom authentication mechanisms, and specific data management workflows, can be quite a long nightmare.

  • Scalability: As the organization grows, the number of users, systems and deployments may increase, making it difficult to scale the system to handle the increased load.

  • Security: Ensuring that the panel and the data it manages are protected from unauthorized access and breaches is of prime importance, and needs a robust and secure system that can be challenging to build.

  • User experience: Providing a user-friendly and intuitive interface for the various teams to use the admin panel or even view and understand an overview of important metrics can be a challenge without experienced frontend engineers.

  • Maintenance and upgrades: Keeping the panel up-to-date with the latest technologies, security patches and regulatory changes is an ongoing task that can be difficult and time-consuming.
