Dmitri, Thanks for your valuable info. :) I suppose the flow here should be: Mistral calls StackStorm, and StackStorm calls Ansible. Is it right? The big benefit here should be we only need to install StackStorm custom action into Mistral, and StackStorm will handle all the interfaces to other automation tools, such as Ansible. Is it right?

Disclosure: I work for StackStorm, I think it's appropriate to pitch here an open source project that addresses the problem. DZ.

Could you please help to provide how to let Mistral call Ansible playbook or Ansible module? My understanding is to use ssh std_action to let Mistral access Ansible server to call Ansible playbook/modules since Mistral ad-hoc action must base on an existing system action. Another question is: If we install Mistral and Ansible on a same server, is it possible to simplify it?
