Questions tagged [ansible-2.x]

Ansible is a radically simple IT automation platform that makes your applications and systems easier to deploy. Avoid writing scripts or custom code to deploy and update your applications— automate in a language that approaches plain English, using SSH, with no agents to install on remote systems

Ansible 2.x is a new backwards-incompatible version that involved a rewrite of the core, and a new API.

Ansible 2.x features new commands like ansible-vault, allowing you to store encrypted information in playbooks and have them decrypted on the fly. It also includes new concepts like Task Blocks, Dynamic Includes, Execution Strategy Plugins, and a suite of new "batteries included" modules. Most importantly, new releases are named after Led Zepplin songs, rather than Van Halen.
