Ansible FAQ
Why Ansible over Chef or Puppet?
Ansible is agentless (uses SSH/WinRM), has no master server requirement, and uses simple YAML syntax, making it much easier to adopt.
Can I use Ansible with Terraform?
Yes! A common pattern is using Terraform to provision the infrastructure and Ansible to configure the applications and services running on it.
Can Ansible manage Windows?
Yes, using WinRM or SSH, it can automate Windows Server as effectively as Linux.
