Puppet Enterprise Overview

What is Puppet Enterprise?

Puppet Enterprise helps you know what's in your infrastructure, and how it's configured across all the physical components of your data center; your virtualized and cloud infrastructure; and everything you're running in containers. Puppet automatically keeps everything in its desired state, enforcing consistency and keeping you compliant, while giving you complete control to make changes as your business needs evolve. Only Puppet includes desired state conflict detection and situational awareness, and comes with over 5,000 prebuilt supported, approved and community-contributed modules.

Product Description

Deliver and operate constantly modern software with the leading infrastructure-as-code platform.

How do you position yourself against your competitors?

Unlike other solutions, Puppet Enterprise is designed to scale your configuration management practices across teams and processes while maintaining holistic and continuous management. Puppet's declarative, model-driven approach and simple configuration domain-specific language makes it easy to adopt, scale, and meet your use cases, even as your needs expand. Puppet's built-in intelligence enables it to do things such as isolate failures, report on necessary configuration changes, detect when two or more pieces of infrastructure code are trying to manage the same configuration, and report on system configurations that aren't even managed by Puppet.

What do you like best about Puppet Enterprise?

The puppet community it's really big and the puppet forge (used to share modules) has thousands of modules. This is extremely helpful, since there's is a big chance the automation you need it's already at forge.

Puppet Enterprise is also a great tool, it really simplify Puppet administration and architecture, for example, the client installation it's just a curl call, really simple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Puppet Enterprise?

The puppet Infrastructure it's complex, you will need some time to setup it properly and to figure out how it works.

Puppet don't read your code from top to bottom like programming languages. This is a little bit awkward and confuse when you start writing Puppet code. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Puppet Enterprise:

If you are not a Puppet open source user, I consider trying it first. Only after that you will realize the benefits of Puppet Enterprise. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Puppet Enterprise solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are using Puppet as the primary tool for provisioning database servers, mainly Oracle and DB2. Before puppet this job was done in 2 or 3 business hours, now it's just 5 minutes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
