If you are in the DevOps space, then you might have heard about Ansible, one of the powerful tools for infrastructure automation. In the past, when you need to set up a server for your application, you need to go to each server and install all the software and verify it. This slow, manual, and painful server setup process is over, with tools like Ansible, Chef, Puppet, and Salt making their way. These are the tools that promote the idea of Infrastructure as code which also brings the added benefit of versioning and scaling when it comes to infrastructure automation. This is really important if you want to build a new server and scale as building new servers for your application can take a lot of time but you can reduce them by using automation tools like Chef and Ansible.
