Hi friends, I’m back, this time jotting down some notes around my go-to way to provision VMs using Ansible. This post assumes Debian (Nix may be a future post).
Of course there’s many ways to provision a server, and this is just one of them. I hope some of these notes are helpful!
If you have any other ways you prefer to set up a server, that would be cool to share!

Ansible is a legitimate way to provision a VM, but that’s not it’s strong suit. You should look into Teraform as it’s more industry standard.
Wait can you achieve the same as ansible with terraform?
To provision VMs yes, to configure them I think Ansible works best. But you can call Ansible from Terraform.
