I'm looking for Windows Deployment Services equivalent for my Linux network. At the momment I'm using Cobbler (https://cobbler.github.io/) but I'm are looking for a software where I could place .iso images and PXE boot for any machine. Source: 11 months ago

Some folks don't like YAML all that well, and I can understand where they are coming from. I wish Ansible provided a good Python API so that playbooks could be written in Python easier. But there is a project called PyInfra that is trying to do something similiar to Ansible, using Python as the configuration language. https://pyinfra.com/ It is still pretty new so not got nearly as many modules written for it...

My ‘go to’ tool for automating infrastructure is pyinfra It’s fast, is versioning control friendly aka git and best of all, it relies on python files and modules for its storage of executable commands. Source: over 1 year ago
