Study Notes
Ansible Fundamentals
Playbooks
- A playbook is a YAML file that defines a set of tasks to be executed on a group of servers.
- Playbooks are the core of Ansible's configuration management and deployment capabilities.
- They can contain one or multiple plays, which are a set of tasks executed on a specific group of hosts.
- Playbooks can be used to:
- Configure servers
- Deploy applications
- Manage infrastructure
- Automate repetitive tasks
Modules
- Ansible modules are small pieces of code that perform a specific task.
- Modules are the building blocks of Ansible's automation capabilities.
- There are over 1,000 modules available in Ansible, including:
- File management (e.g., copying, deleting, and editing files)
- Network management (e.g., managing DNS, FTP, and HTTP)
- Database management (e.g., managing MySQL, PostgreSQL, and Oracle)
- Cloud management (e.g., managing AWS, Azure, and OpenStack)
- Custom modules can be created to perform specific tasks.
Roles
- Ansible roles are a way to organize playbooks and modules to perform a specific function or set of functions.
- Roles are essentially a collection of playbooks and modules that can be easily reused across different environments.
- Roles can be used to:
- Set up a web server
- Configure a database
- Deploy a specific application
- Roles can be shared and reused across different teams and organizations.
Inventory Management
- Ansible's inventory is a file that defines the hosts and groups in an environment.
- The inventory file is used to organize servers into groups based on their characteristics, such as:
- Environment (e.g., dev, prod, staging)
- Location (e.g., datacenter, cloud)
- Function (e.g., web servers, database servers)
- Inventory files can be static (defined in a file) or dynamic (generated using a script or program).
- Ansible provides a built-in inventory system, but it can also integrate with other inventory systems, such as LDAP or cloud providers.
