Ansible is the leading solution for configuration management. It lets you automate assets in an environment--including Linux, Windows, Cloud, Network Devices and more--and works as an application-deployment tool enabling infrastructure as code.

Ansible Complete Video Course: From Basics to Guru will teach Ansible from the ground up, so whether you're a novice or an experienced developer, administrator or user, this title will help you get the most out of your Ansible solutions and playbooks and manage your heterogeneous environment.
