How can I automate deployment using Ansible?

You can automate deployment with Ansible by creating playbooks that define the tasks to be executed on your servers.

What are playbooks and how do I create one?

Playbooks are YAML files that describe the automation tasks. You can create one by defining hosts, tasks, and modules.

Can you give me an example of a simple playbook?

Sure! Here's a simple playbook that installs Nginx:

- hosts: webservers
  tasks:
    - name: Install Nginx
      apt:
        name: nginx
        state: present

How do I run this playbook?

You can run the playbook using the command ansible-playbook your_playbook.yml in your terminal.
