Zato project blueprint

This repository provides a blueprint structure for deploying Zato integration projects using DevOps practices.

What this is

This is a sample project structure that demonstrates how to organize and deploy Zato projects from git to Docker containers. It serves as a template for building your own provisioning scripts and managing Zato environments across development, testing, and production.

What you'll learn

• How to structure your Zato projects with proper separation of code, configuration, and credentials
• Where to keep your Zato services and how to organize them
• How to use enmasse files (YAML) to define and version-control your configuration
• How to pass passwords and credentials securely using environment variables
• How to install Python dependencies and manage custom configuration files
• How to create reproducible builds that persist when containers restart
• How to configure SSL/TLS
