Ansible DevOps Cookbook

With a collection of over seventy-five solution-focused recipes, "Ansible DevOps Cookbook" will teach using Ansible to fix problems, simplify operations, and boost the efficiency of DevOps practices. Clear, step-by-step directions are provided in each recipe, covering everything from basic setup to advanced techniques of using Ansible and DevOps operations. You will start by creating an efficient inventory system, configuring control and managed nodes, and setting up Ansible environment. You can implement effective solutions such as handling more complex playbook techniques, such as working with variables, facts, conditionals, loops, and more. You will learn to organize playbooks and create reusable automation with Ansible roles. You can increase automation capabilities by accessing community-driven content through Ansible Galaxy.

When it comes to cloud integration, the book goes into great detail to automate deployments on AWS, Azure, and GCP. These recipes show how to use Ansible modules for managing and provisioning cloud infrastructure to manage resources efficiently and ensure high availability and performance. Jenkins and GitLab are among the many of the tools covered in this book, which teaches to automate the build, test, and deployment pipeline as part of continuous integration and continuous delivery process. Ansible Tower and AWX are implemented in the last chapters to automate enterprise-grade tasks, including job scheduling, monitoring, and role-based access control. This book's practical solutions will help you reinforce DevOps practices and maximize the effectiveness of Ansible in automation processes.
