2 WHAT IS ANSIBLE?

3 WHAT IS ANSIBLE? It s a simple automation language to describe an IT infrastructure Ansible Playbooks. It s an automation engine that runs Ansible Playbooks. Ansible Tower - an enterprise framework for controlling, securing and managing your Ansible automation with a UI and restful API.

4 SIMPLE - POWERFUL - AGENTLESS

5 SIMPLE POWERFUL AGENTLESS Human readable automation App deployment Agentless architecture No special coding skills needed Configuration management Uses OpenSSH & WinRM Workflow orchestration No agents to exploit or update Orchestrate the app lifecycle More efficient & more secure Tasks executed in order Get productive quickly

6 HOW ANSIBLE WORKS CMDB PUBLIC / PRIVATE CLOUD ANSIBLE S AUTOMATION ENGINE HOSTS USERS INVENTORY API APPS & SERVICES MODULES ANSIBLE PLAYBOOK PLUGINS NETWORKING

7 PLAYBOOK EXAMPLE --- name: install and start apache hosts: all vars: http_port: 80 max_clients: 200 tasks: - name: install httpd yum: pkg=httpd state=latest - name: write the apache config file template: src=/srv/httpd.j2 dest=/etc/httpd.conf - name: start httpd service: name=httpd state=running

11 SIMPLE - POWERFUL - AGENTLESS WHAT IS MISSING?

12 CENTRAL INTEGRATION ACCESS Central place for everyone Simple, powerful API Teams and users enable RBAC Overview of present and past Uses REST for quick adoption Deposit credentials securely Schedule jobs No special agents or lib needed Assign access to unprivileged Have one common view Integrate with everything Separate access and execution

13 ANSIBLE TOWER Ansible tower is an enterprise framework for controlling, securing and managing your Ansible automation with a UI and restful API. WHAT IS ANSIBLE TOWER? Role-based access control Push-button deployment for non-privileged users. Central logging, with connections to external frameworks. Workflow manager to stitch multiple playbooks together.

14 PLATFORM OVERVIEW ANSIBLE CLI & CI SYSTEMS. ADMINS ANSIBLE PLAYBOOKS ANSIBLE TOWER SCHEDULED & CENTRALIZED JOBS KNOWLEDGE & VISIBILITY ROLE-BASED ACCESS CONTROL SIMPLE USER INTERFACE TOWER API USERS ANSIBLE OPEN SOURCE MODULE LIBRARY PYTHON CODEBASE PLUGINS TRANSPORT SSH, WINRM, ETC. AUTOMATE YOUR ENTERPRISE INFRASTRUCTURE NETWORKS CONTAINERS CLOUD SERVICES LINUX, WINDOWS, UNIX ARISTA, CISCO, JUNIPER DOCKER, LXC AWS, GOOGLE CLOUD, AZURE DATABASES, LOGGING, SOURCE CONTROL USE CASES PROVISIONING CONFIGURATIO N MANAGEMENT APP DEPLOYMENT CONTINUOUS DELIVERY SECURITY & COMPLIANCE ORCHESTRATION

15 ANSIBLE: THE LANGUAGE OF DEVOPS ANSIBLE PLAYBOOK From development DEV/TEST Q/A to production. OPERATIONS MANAGEMENT COMMUNICATION IS THE KEY TO DEVOPS. Ansible is the first automation language that can be read and written across IT. Ansible is the only automation engine that can automate the entire application lifecycle and continuous delivery pipeline. OUTSOURCERS
