Installing necessary packages

If you have existing servers that are already managed with Ansible, then please ignore this section. However, if you're setting up a new server to use for deployment or testing purposes and want it available via Ansible, follow the instructions below
SSH to your remote server and run the following command
Example ssh ubuntu@my-ip-address
sudo apt-get update -y && \
sudo apt-get install -y python-setuptools && \
sudo apt-get install python3-pip -y && \
sudo apt-get install python-pip -y && \
