Before we start using Ansible, we must first know on which OS we can use it and how to install and configure it. Then, we must learn about some of the concepts of the artifacts that it needs to operate.
In this section, we will look at the installation of Ansible in a local or server machine and the integration of Ansible in the Azure Cloud Shell. Then, we will talk about the different elements or artifacts that make up Ansible. Finally, we will end this section with the configuration of Ansible.
To get started, we will see how to download and install Ansible with an automatic script.
