Depending on how sophisticated your answer should be, i advice you following great book: https://valdhaus.co/books/taste-test-puppet-chef-salt-stack-ansible.html

What I like on Ansible compared to Puppet is:

  • no hassle with installing a client or agent on the remote machines. so a playbook normally works out of the box for new clients
  • really easy to read provisioning scripts in YAML
  • far more easy to learn
  • far better and growing Docker support (you can directly deploy configurations into a container)
  • last but not least - a very responsive community
