Sure am! Re scale, I can't speak to that because we just don't have that size. But Ansible has been bought/absorbed into Redhat now, so the Ansible Tower infrastructure may scale. You would need to test :)
cheers L. ------ "The antidote to apocalypticism is *apocalyptic civics*. Apocalyptic civics is the insistence that we cannot ignore the truth, nor should we panic about it. It is a shared consciousness that our institutions have failed and our ecosystem is collapsing, yet we are still here — and we are creative agents who can shape our destinies. Apocalyptic civics is the conviction that the only way out is through, and the only way through is together.
