Features and benefits
Create a culture of communication
Team members from any department can participate in the same workflows by using the automation controller’s user interface, role-based access controls (RBAC), and human-readable automation language.
Establish (and protect) processes
Ansible Automation Platform protects and improves processes by allowing individuals within (and across) teams to capture solutions in playbooks that everyone can use or improve—simplifying the process of group interaction, problem solving, and (generally) getting stuff done.
Provide the right DevOps tools
Implementing a DevOps methodology requires tools like Ansible Automation Platform that break down barriers between development and operations teams while continuously delivering, monitoring, and measuring performance.
Integrate continuously
Ansible Automation Platform can validate interactions between different infrastructure components, using frameworks like Test Kitchen or Molecule to define and execute these tests, as well as ansible-lin that checks code against a set of predefined rules.
Deliver continuously
Automate the release of validated code to a repository codebase that's always ready for the next stage in the application lifecycle management process: deployment.
Deploy continuously
Deploy updates to servers, networks, load balancers, monitoring systems, web services, and other devices during a rolling update that uses a comparatively small amount of certified automation content.
Automate with your partner of choice
Red Hat recognized for DevOps platform vision
