Topic

An update is now available for Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2.6

Description

Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform provides an enterprise framework for
building, deploying and managing IT automation at scale. IT Managers can
provide top-down guidelines on how automation is applied to individual
teams, while automation developers retain the freedom to write tasks that
leverage existing knowledge without the overhead. Ansible Automation
Platform makes it possible for users across an organization to share, vet,
and manage automation content by means of a simple, powerful, and agentless
language.
