  "description": "Ansible (Michael DeHaan, 2012, acquired by Red Hat 2015) is an agentless IT automation tool for configuration management, deployment, and orchestration. Uses YAML playbooks and SSH — no agent to install on target machines. Idempotent: running same playbook multiple times produces same result.",
