Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform Likes & Dislikes
1. The biggest strength for me are the simplicity of YAML based playbooks which are easy to read, write and maintain even for complex workflows. 2. Automation Controller (Tower/AAP UI) makes scheduling, role based access and job monitoring much easier at scale. 3. CI/CD and cloud integrations really helped me to automate deployments and environment provisioning across different platforms.
What I really like about about it is that it makes frontend development easier. It helped me to do my job better by taking care of repetitive tasks and technical stuff behind the scenes. So that I can focus on creating great frontend experiences with getting stuck.
- ageless architecture: this simplifies deployment significantly since we don't need to install extra software human-readable yaml, ansible galaxy/content collections
1. I felt that the initial setup and learning curve can be steep, especially when moving from basic Ansible to the full automation platform. 2. Debugging failed playbooks isn't always straightforward and error messages can be unclear at times. 3. Licensing and pricing feel expensive for smaller teams compared to using open-source Ansible alone.
It could me more user friendly, provide simpler tools for developing and managing automation tasks, be easier to understand and work better with windows. For Frontend developers like me, Ansible will be easier to use and more useful if this changes were made.
