Configuration Management Automation Tool - Ansible

Ansible: The Best Tool for System Automation

📖 In this lecture

In [Basics] , we will briefly look at the installation and execution of the ensemble.
In [Application] , we'll implement automated management of various systems beyond CentOS, which we covered in the basics, through Ansible. This will allow us to create a unified management system.

[Optional] This covers `What's New in Ansible 2.5` and `Configuring NX-OSv Lab for Network Practice`, and is a reference level content that you can listen to if necessary.

In [Advanced] , we'll take our simple code and make it more structured, efficient, and reusable. Now, beyond functional functionality, we'll explore the crucial, yet crucial, aspects of protecting sensitive information and improving performance.
