> Did you know that you can use YAML and provision actual cloud provider resources with boring tech? Welcome to Ansible
Anyone using Ansible for cloud infrastructure management is not to be taken seriously. It's among the worst tools for the job - not (always) idempotent, no state tracking, slow, very limited in the resources it can manage, very lacking templating, fun stuff like "state: absent", running, and then having to remove the corresponding lines to delete, etc etc. You're literally better of bash scripting the cloud provider's CLI than using Ansible. Terraform/OpenTofu, Pulumi/tfcdk if you hate your future self are just clearly so much better.
