Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Ansible-Semaphore vs Ansible AWX
Also worth considering is ARA for playbook reporting, and then whatever you want for orchestration (Jenkins, Azure Devops, Rundeck, etc).
-
Zabbix to monitor ansible
Why not use ara?
-
How would I get a list of IP addresses of failed hosts and details?
For general recording of playbook activity with a web dashboard, ARA works really well.
- Planning on writing a callback plugin - is there a unique variable to identify a particular play being run?
-
A way to log which user excuted a playbook
If you don’t want any UI / access control then you can also look at ARA - https://ara.recordsansible.org This works as a callback plugin to capture the job run data.

Benchmarking ansible-core 2.11 vs 2.14 and python 3.9 vs 3.11 along with ara's database backends
ara records ansible playbooks and makes them easier to understand and troubleshoot.
I'm not sure how to interpret running 100 debug messages (https://github.com/ansible-community/ara/blob/master/tests/integration/benchmark_tasks.yaml) into real life performance. Mitogen's Benchmark used either 100 times a "hostname" command on the target machine (https://github.com/mitogen-hq/mitogen/blob/master/tests/ansible/bench/loop-100-items.yml) or running the DebOps project (https://github.com/debops/debops-playbooks/blob/master/playbooks/common.yml) for some sorta real-world module usage.

Best options for monitoring Ansible deployment times
I do not know if this would help but https://ara.recordsansible.org/ offers some sort of visibility and visual approach. setup might take some time but it can offer information, also it uses some sort of plugin which logs a lot of stuff, which Ara reads and offers the mentioned stuff above.
Maybe ansible ara is what you‘re searching for.
semaphore
- Server management software (patching,...)

Ansible-Semaphore vs Ansible AWX
I've been trying Ansible AWX and Ansible Semaphore. (Ansible WebUIs)
-
gans - Git+Ansible: watch git repo for changes and run only changed playbooks
So you basically rebuilt Ansible Semaphore?
-
Minimalist self hosted apps
Semaphore - CI/CD for Ansible
- low effort ansible gitops
-
Who's NOT using Kubernetes these days and want to share their exciting bit/tooling?
Ansible with semaphore and a bunch vms at my last job. We still needed to figure out how to deploy regular servers correctly before containers were on our roadmap and semaphore was lighter than awx and didn't require a kubernetes cluster
-
what do they use, or how do they do it..
instead of ansible tower, look at semaphore (https://ansible-semaphore.com/)
-
Need User interface for managing and running the ansible playbooks.
https://ansible-semaphore.com/ https://www.rundeck.com/open-source
Once you have tower or awx you can throw away jenkins. No more silliness of groovy and java when you have python and ssh based actions For UI try Semaphore - https://github.com/ansible-semaphore/semaphore
