Unique deployment ID generation, template naming, and settings persistence for Imagine Aviator cluster provisioning workflows on AWS.
Streamcake's integration with Imagine Communications Aviator provides workflow step utilities for the deployment lifecycle of cloud-native broadcast playout clusters on AWS. The deployment ID workflow step generates unique deployment identifiers — either as standalone unique strings or from configurable templates with token substitution — and automatically persists the generated ID to service settings for all downstream workflow steps. Infrastructure provisioning settings cover VPC, subnet, availability zone configuration, database credentials, message queue credentials, and separate machine images for workflow orchestration nodes and broadcast channel spin-up.

Features
Automatically generate unique alphanumeric identifiers for every Aviator cluster deployment — each run produces a distinct ID ready for infrastructure tagging and tracking.
Define flexible naming conventions using configurable templates with token substitution — generate structured identifiers that align with environment and project naming standards.
Adjust the length of generated unique identifier segments to suit different infrastructure naming requirements, with automatic boundary management for predictable results.
Generated deployment IDs are automatically written to service settings, making them immediately available to all downstream workflow steps without explicit handoff between steps.
Every workflow step start and completion event is logged for a full deployment audit trail and traceability across Aviator cluster provisioning operations.
Comprehensive configuration for AWS-deployed Aviator environments — networking, availability zones, database, message queue, and compute image settings managed in one place.
Ready to go live with broadcast-grade reliability?
Provision a Imagine Aviator in minutes. No infrastructure to manage — Streamcake handles everything end-to-end.
Use Cases
Spin up individual broadcast channel instances within an Aviator cluster — each channel provisioning workflow generates its own deployment identifier for independent tracking and management.
