System Requirements
SSH within the Application Infrastructure
Application infrastructure refers to all the components required to deliver an application and its functions and services to the customer. Although each application is unique, certain common components can be identified that are typically implemented to support application capabilities and service delivery.
One of the most common components of a typical application infrastructure is Linux hosts.
Modern application infrastructure leverages multiple hosting platforms such as on-premise data centers, private clouds, and public clouds offered by third-party hosting providers.
The application infrastructure components communicate with each other to enable service delivery. This can leverage SSH communication. Additionally, administrators of these application infrastructures will need to SSH into these hosts to perform maintenance.
Additionally, security and audit compliance requirements necessitate constant awareness of who has access to what and the maintenance of best security practices for the communications.
