It is recommended that the tokens you create have a 24 hours life span and that you delete them when you are done using the tool.

Technologies

TerraComposer: Reveal terraform's hidden potential
TerraComposer manipulates terraform files and state to create new functionalities.

• Apply configurations from Source tenant to Target tenant.
• Create terraform states from existing configurations.
• Multi Targeting: Plan and apply only a specified set of configuration and their dependencies, at lightning speed.
• Omit Destroy: Push new configurations and changes without destroying existing unrelated configurations.

OneTopology: Precision at scale
OneTopology processes reconcile Source tenant topology with Target tenant topology, as One Topology.

• Configurations from the Source tenant will land on the right entities, even if their IDs change during the migration process (Host, Synthetic test, Application, Service, etc.).
• It is optimised for speed and precision.
• Ensures that you will not be limited to the Config Manager.
• You can keep using Configuration as Code (aka Monaco), Terraform or UI screens in parallel without breaking Config Manager functionalities.
