- user5994461 9y agoIt doesn't need root access. It's just that most of the useful things to do on a server require root.
- rmenr 9y agoTo do anything useful, you'd have to give it sudoer privs - this is true. If you're squeamish about that, on principle, then Salt, Chef, and Puppet would be problematic as well. The only logical choice would be to provision and bake all of your images and push the AMI up to AWS...in which case Ansible would be an excellent utility anyway.
