In this recipe, we will outline how to install the Python libraries required by Ansible to start interacting with the AWS orchestration system. This step is mandatory as these Python libraries must be installed on the Ansible control machine in order for all of the Ansible AWS modules to work.

Getting ready
You need to have sudo access on the machine in order to install the required Python libraries. Furthermore, you need to have the python-pip package installed since we will be using pip to install the required Python libraries.
