Webinar: Virtual Machine and basic web service deployment with Ansible

April 2017

In this webinar we use the automation tool Ansible for first creating a Virtual Machine on-demand, then installing a web server into it so it can serve some data to the world. Lastly, the freshly created resources are purged with the same automation toolchain they were created with. Using ephemeral resources spawned in this manner is the first key thing to understand when building cloud-aware applications and software stacks.
