This book offers a brief overview of Ansible, starting with Ansible basics and then exploring its core features. It provides some practical examples of its core concepts like configuration management, application deployment, Kubernetes deployment, and Ansible for DevOps, helping its readers get some hands—on experience. The journey then moves to specialized fields like cloud provisioning for AWS and Azure, configuration management of Linux and Windows Servers, and application deployment. The latter half of the book covers advanced topics such as network and security automation, DevOps practices, and managing Docker and Kubernetes containers, culminating with an introduction to Ansible Tower.
