Sounds like that person didn't get into Ansible very far at all.
- hosts: databases
tasks:
- # your update steps here
- hosts: appservers
tasks:
- # all the steps here
Ordering in Ansible is intrinsic to the system and there's nothing
complicated here to do at all.
Playbooks contain an ordered list of plays, so you can just address
different groups in any order you like, including revisiting previous
groups.
