Infrastructure relies on one person
Only one specialist knows how the servers are set up, and their vacation becomes a business risk.
Ansible
Red Hat's agentless tool for automating server configuration. We choose it when infrastructure must be reproducible and must not depend on a single person.
WHY WE CHOOSE THIS
When servers are configured by hand, the knowledge lives in one administrator's head. Ansible playbooks turn configuration into documented code that can be repeated and reviewed.
Several identical environments
You need staging and production environments or several servers with identical settings.
Releases break the live system
Manual updates often end in errors, and the team dreads every release.
Setting up servers from scratch
Playbooks for installing software, users, security and monitoring on new servers.
Automated application deployment
Release playbooks that update the system the same way on every server.
Updates and security for server fleets
Rolling out updates and security policies at scale without logging into each server.
Disaster recovery
Fast redeployment of an environment from ready-made playbooks.

Does a small project need Ansible?+
It depends on the number of servers and how often things change. For one server with rare updates it can be overkill. Once there are several servers or frequent releases, automation pays off through fewer errors.
Why Ansible and not Terraform?+
They solve different tasks and often work together. Terraform creates cloud resources, while Ansible configures servers and deploys applications to them. We choose Ansible when the main problem is configuration and releases.
Do we need to install anything on our servers?+
No, no agents are needed. Ansible connects to servers over SSH, so all it takes is access and Python, which is usually already present on Linux systems.
Will our team be able to maintain the playbooks?+
Yes. Playbooks are written in YAML and are easy to read. We keep them in a repository with a description, so your administrator can make changes independently.
Infrastructure that cannot be reproduced is a hidden business risk.
Infrastructure automation with Ansible at GVSPACE starts with an inventory: which servers exist, how they are configured and what changes most often. Then we describe configuration and releases in playbooks, keep them in Git and run them through CI/CD. That way new servers come up from the same playbook, releases go out without manual steps, and knowledge about the infrastructure belongs to the company, not to one specialist.
