How is it customary to do a proper docker deployment via ansible?

Question

Ansible

I am learning the interface between docker and ansible.
I see two approaches to this:
- docker_container as a module (does it have its own playbook for each container?)
- ansible-container (reminiscent of docker-compose, but with additional roles)
In ansible-container, in all examples and tutorials, I see that roles are placed directly next to container.yml, and everything is then launched directly on the host (ansible-container build/run)
but, in theory, the point of ansible is to deploy the configuration from the workplace without agents, and without even going to the hosts, to carry out automated setting. But in the case of ansible-container, everything is different.
tell me what am I doing wrong? Maybe it needs to be used in some other way?
What are the current practices?

Answer 1

Docker itself is just one of the building blocks, the foundation.
"Deploy the system on the server" is about Docker-Compose, Flynn, Kubernetes, etc.

Answer 2

This functionality is best solved by container orchestration systems.
