Ansible on Windows! Create and collect custom facts from Windows servers using PowerShell.
Talk Description
With Windows being a massive growth area for Ansible, this talk will show you how to collect standard facts and create entirely new custom facts on remote windows servers. Custom facts allow us to target very specific server conditions in our Ansible Playbooks. Either store them locally to discover valuable information about your estate, or use them in your playbooks as conditionals to run specific tasks. Creating custom facts on Windows is a great tool to add to your Ansible Armoury, and it's not as hard as you think to get started.
