Ansible leverages Secure Shell (SSH) for secure communication with remote servers, eliminating the need for agents on managed nodes, which contrasts with tools like Chef and Puppet. The basic workflow involves the Ansible Control Node connecting via SSH, executing a temporary Python script on the target machine, and deleting it after the task completion. Additionally, Ansible's features enable managing user permissions across servers efficiently, making it useful for Linux and DevOps professionals who frequently configure user access.
