Ansible是近年用户量急速蹿升的开源配置管理工具。在Ansible之前，行业中已经有很多开源配置管理工具了，特别是鼎鼎大名的Puppet，堪称配置管理界的超级巨星。然而，Ansible依靠它的简单易用、"零依赖"及弱抽象还是获得了无数开发者和运维工程师的青睐。遗憾的是，由于Ansible还很年轻，除了官方文档外，其他相关的优秀文档可谓凤毛麟角。而《奔跑吧Ansible》恰恰就是为了缓解这一现状而写的。作者在《奔跑吧Ansible》中演示了如何使用Ansible在接近真实的生产环境进行管理的案例，这既演示了Ansible的强大功能，又能够帮助读者快速入门与上手，非常适合作为官方文档的扩展资料来阅读。

Ansible combines configuration management, orchestration, and parallel command execution into a single tool. Its batteries-included approach and built-in module library makes it easy to integrate it with cloud platforms, databases, and notification services without requiring additional plugins. Playbooks in Ansible define the policies your systems under management enforce. They facilitate effective configuration management rather than running ad hoc scripts to deploy complex applications.This book will show you how to write a blueprint of your infrastructure encompassing multi-tier applications using Ansible's playbooks. Beginning with the basic concepts such as plays, tasks, handlers, inventory, and the YAML syntax that Ansible uses, you will see how to organize your code into a modular structure. Building on this, you will master techniques to create data-driven playbooks with variables, templates, logical constructs, and encrypted data. This book will also take you through advanced clustering concepts such as discovering topology information, managing multiple environments, and orchestration.By the end of this book, you will be able to design solutions to your automation and orchestration problems using playbooks quickly and efficiently.
