Ansible

When I first started using Kubernetes it felt only natural to use the same tool to manage it which I (tried) to use for everything else: Ansible. And that’s how I started using Ansible playbooks to manage Kubernetes by applying manifests directly or installing Helm charts. In this post I want to elaborate how I used Ansible for this task, what was good about it and what was not and finally, why I switched to a different tool now....
