摘要

Modern production environments, heavily reliant on complex IT infrastructures like VMware vSphere, face increasing challenges in managing and automating processes. This article presents the design and implementation of an intuitive user interface for a DevOps automation system tailored for vSphere, bridging the gap between IT operations and production engineering/maintenance. The goal is to enhance efficiency, reduce downtime, and improve resource management in production settings. We detail the interface design process, including user needs analysis, wireframe creation, technology selection (React and TypeScript), implementation, and testing. Key functionalities like virtual machine, network, project, and ticket management are presented, emphasizing their relevance to production and maintenance workflows. Tests confirm the interface’s usability and its potential to streamline operations. This work contributes to the development of tools that support DevOps automation in production and maintenance contexts, offering insights for interface designers, DevOps engineers, and system administrators in these domains.
