One of the core components of Ansible is https://docs.ansible.com/automation-controller/latest/html/userguide/inventories.html. In its most basic form, an inventory provides host information to Ansible so it can trigger the tasks on the right host or system.

Automation controller, the control plane and webUI for Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform, uses this IAM credential to build an inventory and execute automated tasks on your AWS account.

Automation controller lists a number of available inventory sources that can be used for dynamic inventories.
