Ansible in DevOps

Ansible Overview :

Ansible is a universal language, unraveling the mystery of how work gets done.

Ansible is an open source automation platform.

Pre-requisities : It is being assumed that you have hands-on experience with running commands into a Linux shell.

Ansible automates :
   Cloud provisining
   Configuration management
   Application deployment
   Intra-service orchestration and many other IT needs.

Unlike Puppet or Chef it doesn't use an agent on the remote host. Instead Ansible uses SSH which is assumed to be installed on all the systems you want to manage.

copied on the host machine which was executed.
