AWX Training

Central Ansible automation with web interface and RBAC

AWX is a powerful automation platform that centralizes the planning, execution and management of Ansible jobs. Compared to the pure use of Ansible via the command line, AWX offers numerous additional functions such as a modern web user interface, role-based access control (RBAC), central management of credentials, support for containerized execution environments, central logging and options for high availability in productive use.

“The three-day AWX training was really good! We learned an incredible amount, had a lot of fun, and enjoyed it too. Ottavia guided us through the training excellently and was able to answer all our questions—no matter what they were about. It was really a pleasure, and I would like to express my gratitude, also on behalf of the team, especially to Ottavia: for her incredibly friendly manner and her broad and deep knowledge. We definitely want to continue working with her in the future.”
