Ansible - Your First Step Into Server Provisioning
summary
Ansible claims to let a small team go from a snowflake server to repeatable builds using SSH and YAML, requiring only a local master, SSH to clients and a little Python on targets. It uses idempotent modules (user/group/apt/AWS/Docker/etc), playbooks with variables, templates and roles and handlers, and supports dynamic EC2 inventory. The uploader reports getting 90% in two days and a working Ubuntu 12 build that runs, restarts services and refines safely.
