extreme automation for large networks
Operon is a highly compatible replacement for
Ansible® Engine delivering uncompromising
scalability for UNIX networks, dramatically increasing
performance and maximum achievable run size
brand new high performance engine
Performance scales cleanly to at least 24 cores,
enabling playbooks to target thousands of hosts without
the need for clustering
stable, predictable memory consumption
Improved resource usage allows up to 100x more hosts
and tasks to deploy compared to Ansible® Engine,
without hardware upgrades
forwards compatibility, guaranteed
A playbook that works with Operon today will
always work. Forget time-consuming and
dangerous edits during upgrades
Operon installs alongside Ansible® so you can try it
easily. Request an evaluation to learn more

low level efficiency as standard
Operon includes revolutionary improvements already enjoyed by
thousands of Ansible® users
big speedups with no pain
Playbooks typically execute 2x – 5x faster
against a single host, with some environments
experiencing up to 25x
network efficiency improvements exceeding 20x
Long distance operation over slow links becomes
practical, and link capacity bottlenecks are well
mitigated. Why run playbooks remotely when they run
fine from your laptop?
large reduction in target resource usage
Playbooks steal fewer resources from target machines,
enabling lower risk deployments that minimize end-user
disruption
much faster file transfer
Natural use of loops to transfer a large number of
files becomes practical, as fewer network transactions
are used for each file
