Summary
Ansible is an agentless IT automation system that uses existing SSH daemons for configuration management, application deployment, and multi-node orchestration, supporting zero-downtime rolling updates. Its design prioritizes minimal setup, human/machine-friendly YAML descriptions, and module development in any dynamic language. The open-source project (GPLv3, sponsored by Red Hat) offers a devel branch for latest features and a community forum for support.
