Advanced Cluster Management (ACM) and Ansible Automation Platform (AAP) work together by enabling intelligent, automated responses to cluster events—like health issues or outages—across OpenShift environments. In the scenario Roger describes:

Prometheus detects a problem (e.g., degraded application state) and triggers an alert.

This alert is picked up by an Event-Driven Ansible (EDA) rulebook that defines what action to take.

The Ansible Automation Controller (formerly Tower) then orchestrates the migration or failover.

ACM, with Submariner, ensures networking between clusters is maintained during this transition.

This integration enhances business continuity by automating recovery processes and reducing downtime without requiring manual intervention. It’s a solid example of how hybrid cloud resilience can be achieved using Red Hat tools.
