What MAST Automates

Every routine — and not-so-routine — DataPower operation, scripted and repeatable.

Reliability

Automated Backups & Checkpoints

Schedule and execute backups and checkpoints across your entire appliance estate. Consistent, auditable, and recoverable.

Deployment

Configuration Promotion

Promote service configurations across dev, test, and production environments with documented, repeatable workflows. No manual SSH, no tribal knowledge.

Governance

User & Password Management

Enforce password policies and manage user accounts across all appliances simultaneously. Compliance-ready with full audit logging.

Configuration

Domain Management

Create, configure, and manage DataPower application domains at scale. Import and export configurations programmatically.

Diagnostics

Connectivity Testing & Error Reporting

TCP connectivity tests and automated diagnostic gathering across all managed appliances. Faster root-cause analysis during incidents.

Integration

Ansible & CI/CD Integration

Native Ansible integration. Drop MAST operations into Jenkins or GitHub Actions pipelines for fully automated DataPower CI/CD.

Who Uses MAST

Built for teams managing DataPower in production at scale.

DataPower Administrators

Managing 10+ appliances manually is a full-time job. MAST handles routine operations so your team can focus on architecture and security posture.

Platform Engineering Teams

Building CI/CD pipelines for DataPower without proper tooling means custom scripting at every shop. MAST provides the operations layer your pipeline needs.

Compliance & Audit Teams

Every MAST operation is logged and auditable. Password enforcement, configuration drift detection, and backup verification all produce records your auditors can use.

Commercial Support Available

MAST is GPLv3 open source. McIndi offers commercial support contracts for organizations that need SLA-backed maintenance, feature development, and hands-on implementation assistance.
