Can we provision RDS, S3, etc via Foreman

Dear Team,

I am new to Foreman and just learning various features of Foreman to work with Amazon AWS.

I was able to successfully deploy an AWS EC2 instance via Foreman portal hosted in my test machine.

Though I understand that “Foreman is a complete lifecycle management tool for physical and virtual servers”, I would like to know if I will be able to provision other solutions of AWS too such as create an S2 bucket, RDS database, EBS volume, etc using Foreman.

Thanks,

Shiju

As of now, Foreman is not dealing with anything but the EC2 API. This could be possible to do by coding your own plugin (Foreman :: Plugin Manuals). I suppose the reason it hasn’t been done yet is because RDS, or S3 don’t really have much to do with Foreman’s domain, however I could see a good argument for supporting EBS volumes.
