IT organizations are continually looking for ways to deliver IT services to their businesses more efficiently. Automation is key. It can help teams automate routine tasks so there is more time for innovation, ensuring consistent change and helping create overall resilience. With Event-Driven Ansible, teams can now complete important tasks automatically, whether resetting a router in the middle of the night or automatically responding to conditions when they occur with speed and resilience. This popular, new technology makes it easier for teams to flexibly build this type of automatic response into their operations. It is flexible from source to rule to action and can be used by teams without an extended project or deep coding skills. In addition, we explore at a high level, what efficiencies that Ansible Lightspeed (Generative AI) will bring to developing enterprise automation.

Ansible Lightspeed with IBM Watson Code Assistant is a purpose-built generative AI tool that aims to streamline the creation of Ansible content. This capability is natively integrated into your VS Code editor via the Ansible VS Code extension. The AI capabilities are powered by Watson Code Assistant, a foundation model trained on Ansible Galaxy, GitHub, and other open sources of data. Designed with developers and operators in mind, Ansible Lightspeed enables a significant productivity boost for Ansible users to input a straightforward English prompt while making it easier for users to translate their domain expertise into YAML code for creating or editing Ansible Playbooks. To help train the model, users can also provide feedback. Domain-specific AI combines the power of first-hand experience with technical innovation and enables AI to be infused into domain-specific technologies, like automation, to meet their specific challenges. Because it’s trained by users with a core understanding of real-world applications, Ansible Lightspeed enables more consistent, higher quality recommendations for specific challenges right away. It can deliver real value quickly — in a user’s industry, language and function.

Many organizations report hybrid cloud resources that are idle, underused, or over-provisioned, and they may have additional challenges with skill shortages, disparate teams, and the increasing demand to do more with fewer resources. Red Hat’s hyperscaler cloud offerings, paired with the Ansible Content Collections (out-of-the-box integrations and automation workflows) and provided through the new hybrid cloud automation initiative, can accelerate the adoption of automation and greatly improve its time-to-value. In this session, you will learn how customers use hybrid cloud content (such as our certified integration with Terraform) to automate the full life cycle of their applications, perform cluster provisioning, migrate workloads from on-premise VMware vSphere to Red Hat OpenShift, manage it all at scale from their hyperscaler of choice (such as Amazon AWS or Microsoft Azure). We will share real-world examples showing how Ansible Automation Platform can enhance Red Hat OpenShift hybrid cloud architectures.
