• How to create an EC2 instance in AWS using Ansible workflow [Ed: Red Hat on outsourcing to Amazon (proprietary)]

  In our previous article, we demonstrated how to automate the process of creating an EC2 instance on AWS using the Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform. We demonstrated how Ansible Automation Platform can streamline the process of deploying virtual machines (VMs) in AWS, making it more efficient and less error-prone. In this final installment, we will take things a step further by exploring how to simplify the process of creating EC2 instances in AWS using workflow templates.

  Workflow templates can help standardize the process of creating instances and reduce the amount of manual intervention. In this article, we will dive into the details of how to use a workflow template to further optimize our infrastructure management in AWS.

  If you are following along with our series, you may recall that we previously discussed the importance of an execution environment and setting up credentials. These are essential steps to complete before deploying a workflow template. In case you missed the previous articles, we recommend you to check them out to ensure you are ready to move forward with the next steps.

• How to create an EC2 instance in AWS using Ansible automation

  In our previous article, we explored how to use the Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform CLI to create an Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) in Amazon Web Services (AWS). This time, we will take things a step further and leverage the power of the Ansible Automation Platform to automate the process. Ansible Automation Platform is a powerful tool that enables you to manage your infrastructure more efficiently with less manual intervention.
