Deployment Automation - What is Ansible?
• Technology to automate applications and configure
infrastructure
• Four level of abstractions for configuration
○ Task - single action
○ Task list - list of actions
○ Role
■ List of actions (or list of lists) grouped by the same
'subject'
■ A way to group tasks together into one container
○ Playbook
■ list of plays, each operating on possibly different
hostgroup, applying several roles/tasks/task lists
(and special tasks like handlers)
