Ansible: Temp Files vs Pipelining — How Code Reaches the Target

@DevXOps-tech
How does Ansible code actually reach the target machine? Two paths.

📋 PATH A — Temp File:
Build payload → copy to /tmp → execute → collect JSON → clean up.
Like dropping a work order on the desk.

🗣️ PATH B — Pipelining:
Payload goes straight into stdin. No temp file.
Like speaking instructions directly into the worker's ear.

⚡ Pipelining is faster — fewer network round trips.
⚠️ But privilege escalation (become/sudo) can complicate it.
