Key Takeaways

Ansible automation integration with DevOps workflows using Ansible, Docker, and Kubernetes

Original Description

Ready to take your Ansible automation beyond basic provisioning and into production-grade DevOps workflows? This course teaches you how to scale, optimize, test, and govern Ansible automation so it performs reliably across real infrastructure. The course combines concise concept videos with hands-on demonstrations, so you learn each technique and then watch it applied in a real Ansible environment. You will benchmark and refactor playbooks, configure dynamic cloud inventory, debug failed runs, and execute provisioning through a CI/CD pipeline, following along with guided demos at each stage. By the end of this course, you will be able to: 1. Optimize Ansible playbook performance using execution strategies, forks, and fact caching 2. Configure dynamic inventory and cloud inventory plugins for changing infrastructure 3. Test and debug Ansible playbooks using linting, idempotency checks, and Molecule 4. Integrate Ansible into CI/CD pipelines with governance, RBAC, and auditing This course is ideal for system administrators, DevOps engineers, and infrastructure engineers who can already write Ansible playbooks and roles and want to run automation at production scale. Before starting, you should have a basic understanding of Ansible playbooks, Jenkins, YAML, Amazon EC2, and IAM, along with an AWS Free Tier account for the cloud demonstrations. Enroll now to build production-grade Ansible automation skills and a hands-on DevOps portfolio.
