Overview

Create, deploy, and configure Event-Driven Ansible to run automation code when triggered by events sent by your IT infrastructure.

Introduction to Event-Driven Ansible (DO274) is designed for system administrators, DevOps engineers, and other technical professionals who want to learn how to create, deploy, and configure Event-Driven Ansible (EDA) to run automation code triggered by events sent by supported event sources such as monitoring systems, webhooks, and Apache Kafka. Write Ansible Rulebooks and use them in Event-Driven Ansible controller to react upon events and remediate or resolve infrastructure issues. Learn about key use cases as examples of how to use Event-Driven Ansible in your IT infrastructure.

This course is based on Red Hat® Ansible Automation Platform 2.4.
