Repeat SAP application deployments using deployment artifacts created with Amazon Launch Wizard

This section contains information about how to repeat deployments using deployment artifacts created with Launch Wizard. The artifacts include Amazon Service Catalog products and Amazon CloudFormation templates.

How Amazon Launch Wizard integration with Amazon Service Catalog works

Amazon Launch Wizard creates Amazon Service Catalog products from successful deployments. The Amazon Service Catalog products contain Amazon CloudFormation templates and associated application configuration scripts, which are stored in Amazon S3. You can use the Amazon Service Catalog products, along with integrations offered by Amazon Service Catalog, with third-party products, such as ServiceNow, Jira, or Terraform. Or, you can use the Amazon CloudFormation templates and application configuration scripts saved in Amazon S3 to deploy SAP applications that meet the requirements of organizational deployment and governance policies.

In addition to supporting deployments using Amazon CloudFormation templates, Amazon Service Catalog, and multiple deployment tools supported by Amazon Service Catalog, Amazon Launch Wizard creates a point-in-time snapshot of the code used to deploy and configure SAP applications at the time of the deployment. You can use the code "as is" for consistent repeated deployments, or you can use the code as a baseline and update it to meet specific application requirements.

Amazon Launch Wizard creates a default Launch Wizard portfolio and products within the portfolio. An Amazon Service Catalog product is created for each deployment and given a name that corresponds to the Launch Wizard deployment name.
