Over the last few years, Ansible has rapidly become one of the most popular IT automation tools in the world. We’ve seen the open source community expand from
the beginning of the project in early 2012 to over 1200 individual contributors today. Ansible’s modular architecture and broad applicability to a variety of automation and orchestration problems created a perfect storm for hundreds of thousands of users worldwide.
Ansible is a general purpose IT automation platform, and it can be used for a variety of purposes. From configuration management: enforcing declared state across your infrastructure, to procedural application deployment, to broad multi-component and multi-system orchestration of complicated interconnected systems. It is agentless, so it can coexist with legacy tools, and it’s easy to install, configure, and maintain.
