Just a small quote regarding K-root (DNS) from the good folk at RIPE [1]:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"Configuration management of our K-root server platforms is now  
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;automated almost entirely, using a customised tool set based on  
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Ansible. This eases the day-to-day operations effort for our  
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;servers, for K-root as well as other services."

I thought you may want to know. 😉

Nice, now ansible is part of the basic structure of the internet ...  
\<insert plumbing allegory here\>.
