Selected Answer: B
Ansible playbooks do not execute scheduled tasks regularly. They are used to define the state of a device configuration and automate the process of achieving that state, but they do not have the capability to execute tasks on a regular schedule.

Selected Answer: B
Why option A is wrong: A. They execute scheduled tasks regularly: This statement is not accurate. Ansible playbooks are not designed to execute tasks regularly on a schedule like a task scheduler or cron job. While Ansible can be integrated with external schedulers, the playbooks themselves do not have built-in scheduling capabilities. Their primary purpose is to define and apply configurations in a declarative manner. In conclusion, the correct capability of Ansible playbooks is defining the desired state for a device configuration, making option B the correct choice.

Selected Answer: B
Declarative feature Ansible Automation Platform uses a declarative model that lets you describe the "what" (desired state of your systems and services) versus the "how" (steps to achieve that desired state). This goal-centric approach makes it easier for your IT operations teams to quickly start automating and supports reliable, idempotent infrastructure configuration. https://www.ansible.com/use-cases/configuration-management
