Further reading

In this chapter, we mentioned Puppet and SaltStack:

  • Puppet is a configuration management tool that runs a server/agent configuration. It comes in two flavors—the open source version and an enterprise version that is supported by Puppet, the company. It is a declarative system and is closely tied to Ruby. For more information on Puppet, see https://puppet.com/.
  • SaltStack is another configuration management tool. It is extremely scalable and, while it shares a design approach with Ansible, it works in a similar way to Puppet in that it has a server/agent approach. You can find more information on SaltStack at https://saltstack.com/.
  • I also mentioned my blog, which you can find at https://media-glass.es/.
