Red Hat Tech Talk for National Australia Bank: The Ansible Journey to Infrastructure as Code

Join Red Hat for a live Virtual Tech Talk for National Australia Bank, as we discuss and demonstrate how Ansible Automation can help you to develop Infrastructure as Code.

Date: Wednesday 3 March 2021
Time: 11:00am - 11:45am AEDT

One of the first steps to infrastructure as code, is to use source control for your infrastructure configuration and automation playbooks. Essentially, start to check-in your infrastructure.

And just like with code, this presents an opportunity to begin to use modern development practices and tooling, and apply that to how you treat your infrastructure.

During this 45 minute Tech Talk for National Australia Bank, we will deliver a presentation and demonstration of how Ansible Automation can help you introduce infrastructure change into your environment, just like a developer, with the ultimate goal of balancing increased release velocity against risk of outage.

Key learning points:

During this Tech Talk, we will demonstrate developer tools including:

• Using Ansible to develop Infrastructure as Code
• Source control branching and merging using Git commands
• Pipeline tooling using methods such as GitLab Runner
• An infrastructure coding unit testing framework using Ansible Molecule
