        This architecture supports the provisioning of an agent to an IBM Cloud Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform or Kubernetes cluster. The agent can be configured for:

      • Metrics monitoring with IBM Cloud Monitoring
      • Security and compliance with IBM Cloud Security and Compliance Center Workload Protection.

        • Key considerations

      • Multiple instances of the agent cannot be deployed on the same host. However, by creating a connection between instances, a single agent can collect both metrics and security data for each instance.
      • You can use the Cloud automation for Cloud Monitoring deployable architecture to provision a new instance of IBM Cloud Monitoring
      • You can use the Cloud automation for Security and Compliance Center Workload Protection deployable architecture to provision a new instance of IBM Cloud Security and Compliance Center Workload Protection. This deployable architecture has an input called cloud_monitoring_instance_crn which allows you to create a connection between instances.
      • Both instances must be in the same region.
      • You can connect only one Monitoring instance to one Workload Protection instance.
      • Connections can only be established between two new instances or between one new and one existing instance.

        This Terraform-based automation is part of a broader suite of IBM-maintained Infrastructure as Code (IaC) asset collection, each following the naming pattern "Cloud automation for servicename" and focusing on single IBM Cloud service. These single-service deployable architectures can be used on their own to streamline and automate service deployments through an IaC approach, or assembled together into a broader automated IaC stack to automate the deployment of an end-to-end solution architecture.
