Ansible configuration management scripts are called playbooks

Ansible is �push-based� by default. Making a change looks like this:

1. You: make a change to a playbook.
2. You: run the new playbook.
3. Ansible: connects to servers and executes modules, which changes server state.

Ansible has official support for pull mode, using a tool it ships with called
ansible-pull.
