Puppet is an open-source DevOps systems management tool for centralizing and automating the configuration management process. It is used to configure, manage, deploy, and orchestrate various applications and services across the whole infrastructure of an organization. Puppet is specially designed to manage the configuration of Linux and Windows systems. It is written in Ruby and uses its unique Domain Specific Language (DSL) to describe system configuration.

Puppet training Objective

  • Normally most of the configuration management tool, deploy the required configuration on a machine, and leave them as it is. But puppet keeps on verifying the configuration at a specified interval(which you can modify as per requirement).
  • Puppet defines the configurations for a host with the help of a language which is very easy to learn and is only used for that purpose.
  • Puppet is used by major players in the industry like Google,red hat etc.
  • Larger open-source developer base
  • Wide number of platforms are supported in puppet.
  • Its works very smooth, even when deployed in a large infrastructure(thousands of hosts to manage)
