-Comparisons
-===========
-
-Confused about how Ansible fits in? Here's a comparison with some common tools.
-
-Accuracy is important, so corrections are VERY welcome if we've got something wrong.
-For space reasons, we can't list everybody's favorite management tool.
-
-Ansible mainly tries to be different in it's goals of minimalism, while also cutting across
-the categories of configuration management, deployment, and ad-hoc task firing.
-
-It strives to be a super-easy to use app, requiring no daemons or databases, and having
-a super-simple configuration management language that takes minutes to learn.
-
-Generally speaking, Ansible is answer to the question "why is the world's systems
-management software so complicated?" The code does not try to show off. It is an
-experiment in radical simplicity and encourages anyone to be able to easily contribute to it.
