Clients

Deployment Automation clients are a web user interface and a command line:

Web user interface A Rich Internet Application (RIA) that maintains much of its functionality in the web browser.
Command line Provides most of features found in the web browser-based user interface.

Clients behavior:

  • Communicate with the server through HTTP or HTTPS.
  • May be deployed locally, on the same LAN as the server.
  • May be deployed remotely.
  • Interact with RESTful (representational state transfer) services on the server as needed.

Note: WebSocket communication is used for notification counters displayed in the user interface on the dashboard at the top right.
