What is an Ansible?

Ansible is a radically simple IT automation engine that automates cloud provisioning, configuration management, application deployment, intra-service orchestration, and many other IT needs.

Designed for multi-tier deployments since day one, Ansible models your IT infrastructure by describing how all of your systems inter-relate, rather than just managing one system at a time.

It uses no agents and no additional custom security infrastructure, so it’s easy to deploy — and most importantly, it uses a very simple language (YAML, in the form of Ansible Playbooks) that allow you to describe your automation jobs in a way that approaches plain English.

What is a Docker?

Docker has become the defacto standard when it comes to container-based implementations. From small scale implementations to large scale enterprise applications, docker serves as the base for container-based orchestration.

Docker gained so much popularity and adoption in the DevOps community in a short time because of the way it’s developed for portability and designed for modern microservice architecture.
