Ansible is the easiest tool for configuration management to onboard and start using. Great documentation, large community. It is as complex as you want it to be and it's complexity scales with your infra. ofc YMMV.
I disagree. It requires to know Python, YAML, Jinja2, own set of commands. It requires careful developing of playbooks. It is slow. It is complicated for non-standard cases where you don't have ready for using modules.
Is there a better approach? I think yes. This is Pyinfra - just pure Python, no additional DSLs. Also for configuration there is Terraform (but there are also some limitations).
