What are the specific roles of Ansible and Kubernetes and their differences?

Answer 1

Ansible just like the Chef which is designed to make standing up virtual machines easier by creating playbooks or recipes that get applied when you run it on the specific host.

You can, of course, use Chef/Ansible in conjunction with Kubernetes. In fact, Chef/Ansible makes standing up new worker nodes in Kubernetes a lot easier. If you want to learn more about these technologies then you must have a look at the following DevOps Tutorial where these topics are covered in detail. I am mentioning the link of the video by which I came to know about these things in detail. Link is as follows:-
