🖋️Ansible Tower is nothing but the tool which is built over the Ansible engine and fill all the sort coming of Ansible like handling SPOF, WebUI, Workflow, credential management, we can schedule the deployment, run multiple playbooks at once, monitoring and many more.
🖋️A job template is a definition and set of parameters for running an Ansible job. Job templates are useful to execute the same job many times.
🖋️Ansible is designed for multi - tier deployment. Ansible does not manage one system at time, it models IT infrastructure by describing all of your systems are interrelated. Ansible is completely agentless which means Ansible works by connecting your nodes through ssh (by default). After connecting to your nodes, Ansible pushes small programs called as "Ansible Modules". Ansible runs that modules on your nodes and removes them when finished.
🖋️Ansible Tower is like Ansible at a more enterprise level. It is a web-based solution for managing your organization with an easy user interface that provides a dashboard with all of the state summaries of all the hosts.And allows quick deployments, and monitors all configurations.
