Ansible is a software tool that provides simple but powerful automation for cross-platform computer support. It is primarily intended for IT professionals, who use it for application deployment, updates on workstations and servers, cloud provisioning, configuration management, intra-service orchestration, and nearly anything a systems administrator does on a weekly or daily basis. Ansible doesn't depend on agent software and has no additional security infrastructure, so it's easy to deploy.

Because Ansible is all about automation, it requires instructions to accomplish each job. With everything written down in simple script form, it's easy to do version control. The practical result of this is a major contribution to the "infrastructure as code" movement in IT: the idea that the maintenance of the server and client infrastructure can and should be treated the same as software development, with repositories of self-documenting, proven, and executable solutions capable of running an organization regardless of staff changes.

this course illustrates the configuration management concept using Ansible scripting and goes over the ansible basics along with real scenarios and practical examples that will help beginners master this tool in a very short time. also, students will be introduced to most syntax capabilities existing in ansible scripting with real case scenarios for configuring Linux servers. This course is one of a group of courses that targets DevOps beginners who are native Arabic speakers and seeks a simple way of explaining DevOps popular tools such as Terraform, Ansible, Jenkins, k8s, Kafka, AWS, and Docker
