Turn automation into your strategic advantage
With Red Hat® Ansible® Automation Platform, you have everything you need to accelerate IT operations across your enterprise. Building a comprehensive automation strategy can help your organization streamline processes, build more resilient operations, and empower teams of all skill levels to quickly create and share automation.
Streamline for savings
We’ve heard from customers that one of the biggest hurdles they face is the sheer size and complexity of their IT environments—and the resulting tech sprawl. It’s common for teams to rely on different tools to solve their specific problems, and this incompatible technology can make it difficult to scale automation. But you don’t need to scrap your tools and start from scratch. Ansible Automation Platform works with everything—and runs everywhere.
Using Ansible Automation Platform, you can build workflows that weave together your existing solutions—and integrate external tools—into fully automated processes that span teams and domains. Validated and certified content built by Red Hat and more than 170 certified partners makes it easier to connect operating systems, network devices, storage, and other technologies, so that you can orchestrate your entire IT estate with one platform.
Build resilient operations
A unified platform can help you build more efficient processes across your enterprise, but the real value comes from extending automation to Day 2 operations like management, maintenance, and governance. Ansible Automation Platform helps you automate decision-making and IT tasks at every stage of the operational lifecycle, so you can take immediate action without manual intervention from your staff.
- Backed by a trusted supply chain, certified content, and dedicated support, you can scale automation with confidence.
- Event-Driven Ansible can process the observability data your tools collect, determine the appropriate response based on conditional rules, then execute automated actions to resolve the issue.
- Integrate AI into your workflows to turn the intelligence of your tools into automated action—and move towards fully self-healing infrastructure.
Ansible Automation Platform’s versatility and extensive ecosystem of integrations helps you build more efficient and responsive IT operations—a foundation you need to seamlessly scale AI workloads and successfully adopt AIOps.
Empower teams to be more productive
As you scale automation across complex environments, your teams may struggle with a common challenge: How to create and manage automation efficiently. Ansible Automation Platform’s tools and features can help you close skill gaps—and codify shared expertise:
- Ansible Playbooks can be written easily in YAML without knowledge of a complicated coding language—and saved, shared, and reused indefinitely.
- Ansible plug-ins for Red Hat Developer Hub delivers a centralized portal experience with curated learning paths, push-button content creation, and integrated development tools to help your teams grow skills and automate faster.
- Ansible Content Collections help employees of various skill levels automate quickly with pre-built playbooks and roles.
Also, your teams can use Ansible Lightspeed—a generative AI service—to convert their expertise into trusted, reliable Ansible code and build entire playbooks in seconds.
When building your automation strategy, start small—but think big
To maximize your automation investment, you may need to overcome inefficient processes, skill gaps, and other organizational challenges. We recommend adopting an automation-first mindset and building a comprehensive automation strategy. You can begin by automating your current tools and common use cases—and gradually work towards a culture of automation.
