Ansible is a configuration management tool that automates the deployment, management, and configuration of software on hosts. The Datadog collection is now available in both Ansible Galaxy and Ansible Automation Hub, providing access to new automation content such as modules, plug-ins, and roles. Installing the collection enables users to automatically deploy the Datadog Agent and its integrations across their infrastructure. The collection is Red-Hat certified, ensuring that all released updates are ready for use in production environments and fully supported by both Red Hat and Datadog. To get started, users need to install the collection, create an inventory of hosts to monitor with Datadog, and create a playbook that installs the Agent on their inventory of hosts. Once installed, users can easily configure their playbook to install Datadog integrations and gain full visibility across their environment.
