This document discusses using Ansible to deploy a WordPress blog using Docker Compose on AWS. It begins with an introduction to Ansible, describing it as an open source tool for configuring and managing servers using YAML files called playbooks. It then outlines the steps to deploy the WordPress blog using Ansible playbooks to provision a VPC and EC2 instance on AWS, configure the instance, deploy ELK and Docker Compose, and deploy WordPress and MariaDB. The document concludes by referencing additional resources for using Ansible, AWS, and Docker.
