/"Dive into the complex world of Jenkins and Ansible with this comprehensive tutorial. This video will walk you through the process of using Ansible within Jenkins for continuous deployment, a common practice in modern DevOps culture. We'll start with a basic introduction to Jenkins and discuss its use as a pipeline and for continuous deployments. Then, using a cluster of web servers as an example, we'll show how to use the Jenkins UI to schedule tasks.

We also cover using Git for source control in Jenkins and explain how to set up and use GitHub credentials for repository management. The tutorial then turns to Ansible and shows how to create a new item, set up a freestyle project, and navigate through project setup.

The video also covers potential challenges you might encounter, such as installing additional Jenkins modules and managing errors. We show how to run shell commands, set up Git, and manage credentials for GitHub.

In the last part of the tutorial, we'll dive deeper into Ansible and explain how to install Python and Ansible, run an Ansible playbook, and manage an inventory file. We'll also discuss the differences between Jenkins and AWX, emphasizing Jenkins' flexibility in handling different types of scripts and tasks.

To conclude the tutorial, we'll show you how to schedule your Jenkins job (similar to setting up a cron job) to ensure your tasks run at the intervals you want.

Whether you're using Jenkins and Ansible for the first time or you're an experienced developer looking to brush up on your skills, this tutorial will provide valuable insight and practical knowledge.
