Ansible: Up and Running: Automating Configuration Management and Deployment the Easy Way

Among the many configuration management tools available, Ansible has some distinct advantages: It\'s minimal in nature. You don\'t need to install agents on your nodes. And there\'s an easy learning curve. With this updated third edition, you\'ll quickly learn how to be productive with Ansible whether you\'re a developer deploying code or a system administrator looking for a better automation solution.

Authors Bas Meijer, Lorin Hochstein, and Rene Moser show you how to write playbooks (Ansible\'s configuration management scripts), manage remote servers, and explore the tool\'s real power: built-in declarative modules. You\'ll learn how Ansible has all the functionality you need--and the simplicity you desire.

Review

I enjoyed reading the book. The hands-on examples with code, real-life applications, humorous comments and general writing flow have made it a pleasant read. The book has a high educational value which I experienced at first hand as someone that's been working with Ansible for only 7 months. The last chapters have been a great addition for the different applications that Ansible can be used for/with. Kudos to you, Bas!

"Bas Meijer has taken the work Lorin Hochstein and Rene Moser began and modernized the content for this third edition, adding to what was already a very good book. Whether you are a beginner, an intermediate, or an advanced Ansible user, this is a book you'll want to read."
