The assumption for all system automation systems, including
ansible, is that you need to repeat the configuration across
many machines, or across a few machines exactly repeatably.

On the other hand, they all have different syntax. If you need a
system automator and you don't like ansible, try puppet or salt
or bcfg or cfengine or...
