Content preview from Security Automation with Ansible 2

A specialized tool for working with Containers - Ansible Container 

Currently, we are using Docker modules to perform container operations. A new tool, ansible-container, provides an Ansible-centric workflow for building, running, testing, and deploying containers.

This allows us to build, push, and run containers using existing playbooks. Dockerfiles are like writing shell scripts, therefore, ansible-container will allow us to codify those Dockerfiles and build them using existing playbooks rather writing complex scripts.
