Ansible Playbook Bundle (APB)
An Ansible Playbook Bundle (APB) is a lightweight application definition (meta-container). They are used to define and deploy complex groups of applications, deployment configs, deployments, and services to an OpenShift Origin cluster running the Ansible Service Broker. APBs offer more power and simple configuration by leveraging the power of Ansible. APBs have the following features:
- Metadata contains list of required/optional parameters for use during deployment.
- Leverages existing investment in Ansible Roles / Playbooks.
- Actions under a directory with named playbooks and metadata defined in apb.yml.
- Developer tooling to drive a guided approach.
- Easily modified or extended.

Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.
