Course description

In this hands-on project, you’ll build a complete automation pipeline using Ansible to deploy a static web application across multiple Ubuntu servers. Starting with AWS EC2 instance provisioning, you’ll configure a control node and two host nodes, set up SSH key-based authentication, and define an Ansible inventory. You’ll then write a YAML playbook that installs Apache, copies static files, and ensures the web service is running—all executed from a single command.

Through practical examples, you’ll learn essential Ansible concepts including modules, tasks, handlers, and inventory management. By the end, you’ll have a reproducible, scalable deployment process that can be extended to manage complex multi-server environments.

This project is ideal for DevOps engineers, system administrators, and cloud practitioners looking to adopt infrastructure-as-code practices with Ansible.

Additionally, all learners receive dedicated online support through our Slack workspace where you can ask questions, get troubleshooting help, and interact with our team throughout the entire project.
