Ansible is a suite of software tools that enables infrastructure as code. It is open-source, and the suite includes software provisioning, configuration management, and application deployment functionality. You can manage multiple hosts from a central location. This tool is very simple yet powerful to automate complex multi-tier IT application environments. Ansible communicates over normal SSH channels to retrieve information from remote machines and perform tasks.

Benefits of Ansible:

• 1. Free: Ansible is an open-source tool.
• 2. Very simple to set up and use: No special coding skills are necessary to use Ansible’s playbooks.
• 3. Powerful: Ansible lets you model even highly complex IT workflows.
• 4. Flexible: You can orchestrate the entire application environment no matter where it’s deployed. You can also customize it based on your needs.
• 5. Efficient: Because you don’t need to install any extra software, there’s more room for application resources on your server.
