Can you name alternative tools for automation of configuration and infrastructure management similar to Ansible?

Alternatives to Ansible for configuration automation and infrastructure management include:

• Puppet — uses a declarative language to describe configurations, suitable for large infrastructures.
• Chef — based on Ruby, uses recipes to manage configurations.
• SaltStack — provides fast and scalable remote command execution and configuration management.
• Terraform — more focused on infrastructure as code (IaC), allows managing cloud resources.
• CFEngine — one of the oldest tools, focuses on security and scalability.

Each of these tools has its own features and is better suited for different tasks and project scales.
