Ansible - Mastering IT Automation and Configuration Management – Online Course
 
Ansible is a hands-on, project-based course designed for system administrators, DevOps engineers, cloud architects, and IT professionals who want to streamline the management of infrastructure using Ansible, one of the most popular open-source automation tools.
 
Ansible offers a radically simple automation platform that enables infrastructure as code (IaC), application deployment, configuration management, and orchestration—all using human-readable YAML templates called playbooks. Its agentless architecture (using SSH) and push-based model make it exceptionally lightweight and easy to adopt, compared to tools like Puppet or Chef that require agent installation.
 
This course starts by introducing the basics of automation and the Ansible architecture, including inventory files, modules, tasks, and playbooks. You’ll learn how to install Ansible, structure your projects, and automate repetitive tasks such as software installation, service restarts, and system updates. Gradually, you’ll progress to more advanced concepts including roles, variables, conditionals, loops, Jinja2 templates, and Ansible Vault for secure secret management.
 
Uniquely, this course focuses not just on writing playbooks but also on designing scalable, reusable, and production-grade automation strategies. You’ll automate real-world tasks such as deploying web servers, managing users, provisioning virtual machines, and integrating with cloud platforms like AWS and Azure.
 
You will gain practical experience with:
  • Writing Ansible playbooks to automate multi-tier application deployments
  • Using dynamic inventories to automate cloud resources
  • Organizing playbooks with roles for large-scale environments
  • Running ad-hoc commands to troubleshoot systems
  • Securing sensitive data using Ansible Vault
  • Performing rolling updates and idempotent provisioning
  • Integrating Ansible with CI/CD tools and pipelines
This course provides the theoretical understanding and real-world experience needed to confidently use Ansible in enterprise environments. Whether you're managing a handful of servers or thousands of nodes, Ansible scales with ease, reduces human error, and enforces consistency across your infrastructure.
 
What makes Ansible stand out is its simplicity and powerful extensibility. Unlike tools that require special languages or client-server models, Ansible uses plain YAML and SSH to get the job done. This makes it accessible to both newcomers and seasoned professionals.
 
This course is ideal for:
  • DevOps engineers automating server provisioning and cloud deployments
  • System administrators managing Linux or hybrid environments
  • Cloud engineers building scalable infrastructure-as-code workflows
  • Developers integrating automation into their pipelines
  • Beginners who want to enter the world of IT automation
If you're looking for a career boost, higher productivity, or simply want to reduce manual overhead in managing your infrastructure, learning Ansible is a must.

Interview Questions Back to Top
1. What is Ansible and why is it used?
Ansible is an open-source IT automation tool used for configuration management, application deployment, and orchestration, known for its simplicity and agentless architecture.
 
2. What is the difference between Ansible and other configuration tools like Puppet or Chef?
Unlike Puppet and Chef, Ansible uses a push model and does not require agents. It uses SSH and YAML for ease of use.
 
3. What is a playbook in Ansible?
A playbook is a YAML file containing a list of tasks to be executed on specified hosts, allowing multi-step automation with logic and conditions.
 
4. What are Ansible modules?
Modules are small programs that perform specific automation tasks such as installing software, managing files, or configuring services.
 
5. How does Ansible ensure idempotency?
Ansible modules are designed to be idempotent, meaning they can run multiple times without changing the system after the first correct execution.
 
6. What is Ansible Vault?
Ansible Vault is a feature used to encrypt sensitive data such as passwords or API keys within Ansible projects.
 
7. What is an inventory file in Ansible?
An inventory file defines the list of target machines (hosts) and groups on which Ansible executes playbooks.
 
8. How can you run Ansible tasks conditionally?
Conditions are applied using the when keyword within tasks, often using facts or variables for decision-making.
 
9. What is the purpose of roles in Ansible?
Roles allow you to group playbook components (tasks, handlers, templates, etc.) into reusable and organized structures.
 
10. How do you debug an Ansible playbook?
Use -vvv for verbose mode, insert debug tasks using the debug module, and test dry runs with --check and --diff.
