Ansible Environment Configuration
Ansible uses YAML (YAML Ain't Markup Language). YAML is a human-readable data format used to define structured data. Ansible playbooks, roles, tasks, and variables are all written in YAML...
This course will teach you how to configure Ansible and use it to automate everyday IT tasks. You'll start by understanding how Ansible works and explore its key components. Next, you'll learn how to set up your own Ansible environment, run ad-hoc commands, and write simple playbooks for basic configuration management. By the end of the course, you will be ready to use Ansible with confidence for small- and medium-scale automation tasks.
