  • What is Ansible?

    Ansible is an open-source automation tool used for configuration management, application deployment, task automation, and orchestration. It simplifies complex IT tasks by providing a declarative language and agentless architecture, making it easy to manage infrastructure and applications.

  • How does Ansible differ from other configuration management tools?

    Ansible is agentless, meaning it doesn't require a client-side agent on managed nodes. It uses SSH for communication and YAML for configuration, making it lightweight and easy to set up compared to some other configuration management tools.

  • What are Ansible Playbooks?

    Ansible Playbooks are configuration files written in YAML that describe a set of tasks to be executed on remote hosts. Playbooks define the desired state of the system and can include roles, variables, and conditionals, providing a structured and reusable way to manage configurations.

  • How does Ansible support idempotence?

    Ansible follows the idempotent principle, meaning that running a playbook multiple times should produce the same result as running it once. This ensures that the system remains in the desired state regardless of the playbook's previous executions, reducing unintended side effects.

  • What is Ansible Galaxy?

    Ansible Galaxy is a platform for sharing and discovering Ansible roles. Roles are reusable units of tasks and configuration, and Ansible Galaxy provides a centralized repository for sharing, reusing, and collaborating on roles created by the Ansible community.
