Application delivery with Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform
Overview
Red Hat® Ansible® Automation Platform offers a simple solution to deploying applications. It gives you the power to quickly deploy multi-tier applications with consistency, all from a common automation platform. You can configure key services as well as push application files. And rather than writing custom code to automate systems, your team writes simple task descriptions that even the newest team member can understand—saving not only upfront costs, but making it easier to react to change over time.
Want to write automation code faster? Use Ansible Automation Platform certified content collections, which are fully supported by Red Hat and trusted partners, to jumpstart automation.
