Welcome to our series focused on Network Automation with Ansible! This series is designed to help you streamline operations, standardize workflows, and manage multiple devices in significantly less time. Network automation is no longer just the domain of network engineers; it is now expanding to include Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) teams.

While there are various frameworks available for automation, Ansible  stands out as an excellent choice. It does not require programming skills, making it accessible with a relatively easy learning curve.

Our Ansible Workbook for DevNetOps  is a comprehensive guide for students in my network automation courses. It provides useful “recipes” to help you develop your own automations using Ansible. By the end of this series, you’ll be able to design and write Ansible playbooks to automate tasks across numerous network devices.
