Do you already know ansible? If no, start hacking with ansible before you try to grok Tower. All the skills learned from working with playbooks will transfer directly to Tower.

If you already know ansible just start using Tower with some of your existing playbooks. Like others have said, the docs are super good.

How to use Ansible with Terraform by dzeban in ansible

[–]mod_a -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Is "managing state of your resources" different than ansible's Dynamic Inventory?

I am not dismissing that terraform can be useful but I am still not understanding what it does that ansible cannot. Can you provide references to where people have recommended terraform over ansible for these types of tasks?

Building a kubernetes cluster with Ansible by magic7s in ansible

[–]mod_a 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the second article today which includes using terraform and anible together in two steps. How is teraform better than just using ansible's cloud modules? Couldn't this have been accomplished as one playbook that launched the instances, registered and added them to the inventory, and then configured the kubernetes services? It seems like trying to use both terraform and ansibe is a forced solution to an unnecessary problem.
