A DevOps team is developing a comprehensive automation solution using Ansible for their multi-tier application. The solution involves custom modules, plugins, and multiple roles. To ensure portability and simplify distribution to other teams and projects, which Ansible component should they use to bundle all these assets into a single, versioned unit?
The correct answer is Ansible Collections. A Collection is a standardized format for distributing Ansible content, which can include roles, modules, plugins, and even playbooks as a single package. This makes it ideal for sharing complex automation solutions. Playbooks are used to orchestrate tasks but do not package the underlying components for distribution. Modules are individual units of work and are contained within Collections, but are not the packaging format themselves. An inventory file defines the hosts that Ansible manages but does not package or distribute automation content.
