Database Automation Tools:
Ansible and more
We prefer to use Ansible for all our database and ecosystem automations. It is an open source tool that proved to work well even in the most complicated installations.
We also have experience with Puppet and Chef, but these are commercial tools depending on their corresponding companies.
