The Power of Automation - F5 and Ansible

In this video, F5 engineer Gordon Bailey-McEwan shows the power of automation using F5 together with Ansible. Deploying a web application with all the required virtual servers, nodes, pools, profiles, etc can be a daunting task. What would normally take several hours (or even days) now takes less than 2 minutes. Enjoy!

The font on the terminal is so small that I can barely see it on my 19 inch display. Imagine people trying to watch this on smaller displays.

Thank you. I am a noob but find F5 videos very interesting. Whats 'ansible'? What's 'tower'?

Ansible is an automation program, for example i type one command (or rather, i use my bash script menu to write select a command) and then that command is able to ping all the PCs in my center.
