🛠️ Ansible Automation Toolkit

🚀 Overview

The Ansible Automation Toolkit is a collection of Ansible playbooks, configuration files, and shell scripts designed to simplify and automate cloud infrastructure management tasks, primarily on AWS (Amazon Web Services). The toolkit focuses on managing resources like EC2 instances, AMIs, S3 buckets, and Autoscaling groups while supporting multiple operating system environments, including Amazon Linux 2 and Amazon Linux 2023.

📦 Key Features

• Infrastructure Automation: Automate the creation, management, and cleanup of AWS resources.
• OS Compatibility: Supports Amazon Linux 2, Amazon Linux 2023, and other Linux distributions.
• Modular Design: Individual playbooks and scripts for specific tasks.
• Scalability: Integrated with AWS Autoscaling and resource optimization tools.
• Reusable Templates: Build consistent environments with reusable templates.
• CI/CD Integration: Workflow support via .github configurations.
