Riassunto

Among the many configuration management tools available, Ansible has some distinct advantagesâ??itâ??s minimal in nature, you donâ??t need to install anything on your nodes, and it has an easy learning curve. With this updated second edition, youâ??ll learn how to be productive with this tool quickly, whether youâ??re a developer deploying code to production or a system administrator looking for a better automation solution.

Authors Lorin Hochstein and René Moser show you how to write playbooks (Ansibleâ??s configuration management scripts), manage remote servers, and explore the toolâ??s real power: built-in declarative modules. Youâ??ll discover that Ansible has the functionality you needâ??and the simplicity you desire.

• Manage Windows machines, and automate network device configuration
• Manage your fleet from your web browser with Ansible Tower
• Understand how Ansible differs from other configuration management systems
• Use the YAML file format to write your own playbooks
• Work with a complete example to deploy a non-trivial application
• Deploy applications to Amazon EC2 and other cloud platforms
• Create Docker images and deploy Docker containers with Ansible

This book is best read start to finish, with later chapters building on earlier ones. Because itâ??s written in a tutorial style, you can follow along on your own machine. Most examples focus on web applications.

Once upon a time, he conducted human subject experiments with programmers, but he hardly ever does that anymore, and his books are almost certainly not part of some elaborate software engineering experiment, why would you even think such a thing?

Lorin has a B.Eng. in Computer Engineering from McGill University, an M.S. in Electrical Engineering from Boston University, and a PhD in Computer Science from the University of Maryland.

René Moser is living in Switzerland with his wife and 3 kids, likes simple things that work and scale and earned an Advanced Diplomaof Higher Education in IT.
