Service

Ansible Consultant Frankfurt | AAP/AWX Automation Services

Enterprise-grade infrastructure automation with Ansible Automation Platform. From playbook development to production deployment with governance built in.

Why Ansible Automation Platform?

Many organizations adopt AAP/AWX for the centralized GUI and job scheduling, but then underutilize the features that deliver real value at scale: credential management, RBAC integration, workflow orchestration, and audit trails.

I help teams move beyond ad-hoc playbook execution toward governance-ready automation that integrates with existing enterprise systems.

What I Deliver

Playbook Architecture & Development

Well-structured, testable Ansible code following best practices. Role-based design that promotes reuse across teams and projects. Molecule testing integration for reliable deployments.

AAP/AWX Implementation

Complete Ansible Automation Platform deployment and configuration. Credential plugin integration with HashiCorp Vault, CyberArk, or existing secrets infrastructure. RBAC design aligned with your organizational structure.

Workflow Orchestration

Complex multi-stage deployments with approval gates, error handling, and rollback capabilities. Workflow templates that compose smaller roles into reliable end-to-end processes.

GitOps Integration

Source control workflows where infrastructure changes follow the same review process as application code. GitLab CI/CD pipelines that trigger AAP jobs automatically.

Migration & Modernization

Assessment of existing automation (scripts, legacy tools) and migration path to Ansible. Gradual rollout strategies that don’t disrupt current operations.

Typical Use Cases

  • Configuration management across thousands of servers
  • Application deployment and rollout strategies
  • Security compliance automation and remediation
  • Infrastructure provisioning (VMware, cloud, bare-metal)
  • Network device configuration (Juniper, Cisco, Arista)
  • Patch management and OS updates

Enterprise Experience

I’ve implemented Ansible automation in banking and energy sector environments where compliance, audit trails, and change management are non-negotiable. This includes PCI DSS remediation automation and integration with ITSM platforms.
