Ansible for Beginners: Understanding Ansible Architecture
Briefly

Ansible is a powerful open-source tool that simplifies IT automation, enabling users to manage and deploy configurations without needing to install agents, streamlining operations.
The control node hosts the Ansible installation, allowing users to interact with it for configuring or deploying to managed nodes, while the managed nodes don't require any installation.
Since Ansible operates in a push mode, it facilitates the seamless application of configurations directly from the control node to the managed nodes, enhancing efficiency.
One of the key advantages of Ansible is its agentless nature, meaning only Python needs to be installed on managed nodes, further simplifying management.
