About:
Ansible is a radically simple IT automation engine that automates cloud provisioning, configuration management, and application deployment. It uses an agentless architecture, managing nodes over SSH or PowerShell with no additional software required on remote systems. This version is pinned to the 10.x series for stability in existing automation environments.

Key Features:

Agentless architecture requiring only SSH/WinRM
Idempotent resource management for safe, repeatable automation
Human-readable playbooks written in YAML
Extensive module library for cloud, network, and OS tasks
Uses existing SSH infrastructure for zero-deployment automation

Use Cases:

Automating server configuration and compliance across fleets
Orchestrating multi-tier application deployments
Provisioning cloud infrastructure and managing infrastructure-as-code

Alternatives:

Terraform – Terraform focuses on infrastructure provisioning (IaC), while Ansible excels at configuration management and orchestration
Chef/Puppet – Chef/Puppet require agent daemons; Ansible is agentless and uses SSH for push-based execution
SaltStack – SaltStack uses a master/minion model; Ansible is simpler with no persistent agents
