Automating at Scale with Automation Mesh
Automation mesh is a concept that was released with Ansible Automation Platform 2.1. Its goal was to improve scalability and reliability. This concept allows you to split the workload among nodes between control and execution and to set nodes in a disparate network. Much of this is high-level, so this chapter aims to explain the different types of nodes and their use, and then cover examples to demystify this new feature.
In this chapter, we’re going to cover the following main topics:
- Overview of Automation mesh
- Using instance groups with Automation mesh
- Examples of various use cases and how to use Automation mesh
