Review\nI enjoyed reading the book. The hands-on examples with code, real-life applications, humorous comments and general writing flow have made it a pleasant read. The book has a high educational value which I experienced at first hand as someone that's been working with Ansible for only 7 months. The last chapters have been a great addition for the different applications that Ansible can be used for/with. Kudos to you, Bas!
