Ansible up & running by loren lorin is a great introduction to ansible. Lorin provides a solid perspective on working with ansible and was one of the early adopters of the platform. This book is a must buy if you are getting started with ansible o... Read More
Cons
All the examples call vagrant and all the scripts are wrappers for vagrant. Not terribly impressed.
Highlights
Quality
Engaging and solid material on getting started with ansible
Real world usecase was spot on and was an enormous help in understanding ansible as a deployment tool and quick config tool
Most of them are lightweight out of date sparse
This type of book would benfit from barring any external lab book a labs section to simplify the handson learning
Price
I do see the value of inline notes and explanation but even an appendix of projects would be a cleaner read
Packaging/appearance
Ansible up running covers much of the behindthescenes details on how the platform arrived into the state that it exists in today
Competitiveness
He implies that lorin provides a solid perspective on working with ansible and was one of the early adopters of the platform
For example nginx is installed differently on aws instances i used then on the ubuntu vagrant instance he used
