An administrator is utilizing an automation engine than uses SSH to run commands on remote systems. Which of the following does this describe?

Inventory refers to the collection of information about managed hosts, which is a component of an automation system, not its architectural style.

An agentless architecture means that the automation server communicates with managed nodes using standard, built-in protocols like SSH for Linux systems, rather than requiring a proprietary 'agent' software to be installed and running on each target machine. This simplifies deployment and management overhead on remote systems.

Build automation is a specific application of automation to compile and package software, not a description of the underlying communication method.

Version control systems manage changes to code and configurations over time, which is distinct from how automation commands are executed on remote machines.
