Questions tagged [ansible-tower]

For questions regarding Ansible Tower - a visual dashboard, role-based access control, and job scheduling system for Ansible deployments.

Ansible Tower allows users to control access to who can access what, even allowing sharing of SSH credentials without someone being able to transfer those credentials. Inventory can be graphically managed or synced with a wide variety of cloud sources.

Ansible Tower logs jobs, integrates with LDAP, and provides a browsable REST API. Command line tools are available for easy integration with Jenkins. Provisioning callbacks provide support for autoscaling topologies.
