What is Ansible?
It's easy to create, manage, and configure one or two servers manually. But
when you have hundreds or thousands, it becomes impossible. So we need tools
that can do that automatically.
Ansible is both a Configuration Management and Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC)
tool. It helps administrators provision, and configure, hundreds, or
thousands of infrastructure components easily. All by just providing
instructions in some files (called Playbooks), that Ansible can understand
and then execute on thousands of components, all at once. These automation
tasks can be as simple as upgrading software on a server. But they can also
be more complex, like deploying multiple applications, configuring them, and
then interconnecting all of them to enable a web application.
Use cases of Ansible
- Provisioning of the infrastructure
- Configuration management of the infrastructure
- Deployment of the applications
- Automation for all of these processes
