Monkeyble in practice
To answer the first question. On our side we use it because of our Squest self service portal (https://github.com/HewlettPackard/squest). We propose some service internaly like we could have in external publiccloud provider like deploying Openshift/K8S cluster, create a single VM in a VMware env, create an Openstack tenant, reserve an IP/DNS entry, generate an internal cert,....

Looking for open-source self-service portal for automation I build
https://github.com/HewlettPackard/squest http://manageiq.org/ - I just found this link - it looks promising. https://budibase.com/approval-apps/ A custom app which requests a ci build which will wait on a manual trigger that an authorized person has to trigger to actually perform it Chat ops workflows mattermost/teams etc. You still have to do all the coding but at least you don't have to do the html gui. You just ask the user questions.

What challenges did you face once you gave devs access to Jenkins jobs?
That being said, for exposing a service catalog I would rather use something like Squest (https://github.com/HewlettPackard/squest). Precisely because I would want traceability and ability to follow up.

Infrastructure as Code vs Self-Service
There are also newer, Ansible focused self-service solutions like Automation Services Catalog from Red Hat or Squest from HPE. I don't know whether they can integrate into OP's Git repo or the self-servicable files need to be outside Git.

Ansible Basics: Your First HelloWorld Playbook π
Ansible is an open-source IT automation tool that simplifies application deployment, cloud provisioning, and configuration management across diverse environments. It uses a declarative language to describe the desired state of the system, and then takes the necessary actions to achieve that state. Ansible has become incredibly popular due to its simplicity, agentless architecture, and extensive community support. Document: ansible.com, ansible basics

Set up an Automation script with Ansible
Ansible is a tool used to help manage software automation processes, configuration management across machines, deployment as well as remote execution of commands and scripts. In sports, Ansible operates as the coach of your team by providing strategies (playbooks), and actions, and ensuring the smooth execution of tasks across your infrastructure, just like a coach guides and directs players (Servers)during a game.

Interesting Uses of Ansible's ternary filter
They support for-if from python, too: https://jinja.palletsprojects.com/en/3.1.x/templates/#loop-f... but I haven't tried the "recursive" keyword to know if ansible supports that. I say "ansible supports that" because they don't just drop jinja2 into ansible and call it a draw, they have a bunch of custom execution integrations: https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/v2.16.3/lib/ansible/...

The 2024 Web Hosting Report
To manage a VM, you can use something as simple as just manual actions over SSH, or can use tools like Ansible, Hashicorp's Packer and Terraform or other automations. For an app where there is minimal load and security/reliability concern, VMs are still a great option that provide a lot of value for the buck

A Journey to Find an Ultimate Development Environment
In this article's context, it is simply a tool that provides a declarative way to automate your machine/OS to configure the development machine as you want (install package, modify the configuration, etc). Examples of these tools are Ansible, Puppet, etc.

Running stateful workloads on Kubernetes with Rook Ceph
In the lab to follow, we'll quickly provision a 3-node kubeadm cluster (1 master, 2 workers) on the cloud provider of your choice using an automation stack comprised of OpenTofu and Ansible, then deploy Rook Ceph using the official Helm charts and confirm that we are now able to successfully create CSI volume snapshots from PVCs by reusing the MinIO example from our last article.
