Inventory of managed nodes[edit]
https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-manage-multistage-environments-with-ansible
Inventory is defined in /etc/ansible/hosts file. It allows you to define your managed hosts by hostname or IP address, and group them, such as "my_webservers_group" in our example in INI format.
Groups of groups, hierarchies, is also supported using (:children) keyword: [YOUR_NEW_GROUP_OF_GROUPS:children] [1]
