About Ansible
Ansible is the most widely used IT automation engine, enabling infrastructure as code, configuration management, application deployment, and orchestration. It uses human-readable YAML playbooks and requires no agents on managed nodes.
The agentless architecture connects via SSH or WinRM, making it easy to adopt without installing software on target systems. Ansible Galaxy provides thousands of pre-built roles and collections from the community.
Ansible Automation Platform (AAP) is the commercial offering from Red Hat, adding a web UI (Controller), execution environments, automation mesh, and content collections for enterprise use.
Ansible is favored for its simplicity and low barrier to entry. It is commonly used alongside Terraform, with Ansible handling configuration management while Terraform manages infrastructure provisioning.
