Master the creation of efficient playbooks to automate infrastructure provisioning, application deployment, and configuration management in multi-cloud scenarios. Dig into advanced areas like network automation, security automation, and edge computing, acquiring the skills to automate intricate tasks effortlessly.

By the end of this book, you will emerge as a confident Ansible expert, capable of automating your multi-cloud operations with precision and efficiency. You will gain the skills to reduce manual effort, minimize errors, and achieve unprecedented agility in your cloud deployments.

In the dynamic landscape of IT, the need to ensure scalability, repeatability, and consistency across infrastructures has driven the surge in automation tools. Ansible, with its declarative nature and agent-less architecture, emerges as a favorite. This book, structured meticulously over eleven chapters, offers an in-depth dive into leveraging Ansible for modern IT needs.

The book commences by grounding the reader in Ansible’s core principles, laying a foundation upon which more intricate subjects are built. Our exploration is not restricted to a single environment; instead, we delve into Ansible’s prowess in a multi-cloud world. Be it AWS’s expansive service offerings, GCP’s data analytics capabilities, or Azure’s enterprise solutions, Ansible seamlessly weaves these platforms together, ensuring interoperability without compromising on security or efficiency.

Infrastructure automation is at the heart of Ansible. Through dedicated chapters, we dissect how Ansible interacts with servers, network devices, and even storage solutions. This ensures that from the physical layer up to the virtual, everything remains orchestrated and in harmony.
However, Ansible’s magic is not just confined to infrastructures. We expand our horizon into application and platform automation, allowing developers and operations teams alike to ensure that applications are consistently deployed, scaled, and managed. In synergy with platforms like OpenShift and Kubernetes, Ansible takes container orchestration to new heights, ensuring microservices and applications run smoothly, irrespective of the underlying complexities.

In the later sections, the book takes a futuristic turn. We delve into the realm of AI and Machine Learning, exploring Ansible’s potential role in managing AI infrastructures, orchestrating ML workflows, and even its interplay in generating AI. As machine learning models and AI applications become mainstream, ensuring their consistent deployment and scalability becomes paramount – a challenge Ansible is poised to address.

This book is not just theoretical; it is a blend of concepts, hands-on examples, and real-world use cases. it is crafted for both the novice trying to understand automation’s basics and the expert aiming to push Ansible’s boundaries.

What you will learn:

- Write efficient Ansible Playbooks for automated system configurations.
- Deploy and manage cloud infrastructure across major providers seamlessly.
- Integrate Ansible with Kubernetes for container orchestration automation.
- Implement Ansible Automation Platform and Tower for enterprise scaling.
- Apply Ansible techniques to automate AI and Deep Learning pipelines.

Who this book is for:
This book is tailored for IT professionals, including system administrators, DevOps engineers, cloud architects, cloud security professionals, automation engineers, and network specialists seeking to leverage Ansible for automation.
