A Quick Poll

We live in
Interesting
Times

More. Faster.

Old practices are
constraints ...

...and old
constraints are
gone

Major IT
movements

No future....

SaaS sets the
trend

Enterprise pays
the bills

Driving down the cost
of technological change

Started 8.5 years
ago

Datacenter and
Cloud
Automation

Very Simple Language
class ssh {
package { 'openssh-server':
ensure => present,
}
file { 'sshd_config':
path => '/etc/ssh/sshd_config',
source => ‘puppet:///modules/ssh/sshd_config',
require => Package['openssh-server'],
notify => Service['sshd'],
}
service { 'sshd':
ensure => running,
enable => true,
require => File['sshd_config'],
}
}

New Approach: Software
Defined Infrastructure
1. DEFINE 2. SIMULATE
4. REPORT
Re-usable infrastructure-as-code Before deploying changes
Automatically and reliablyInsight into changes
DESIRED
STATE
CURRENT
STATE
3. ENFORCE
}

Facts
The node sends
normalized data
about itself to the
Puppet Master.
1
Catalog
Puppet uses the Facts to
compile a Catalog that
specifies how the node
should be configured.
2
Report
Puppet s open API
can also send data
to third party tools.
4
Report
The node
reports back
to Puppet
indicating the
configuration is
complete, which
is visible in the
Puppet Dashboard.
3
Report Collector

People Love our
Worldwide Training!
I liked being with other sharp admins in an environment where
"cross-pollination" and experimentation were encouraged.

Very useful information, a good start for our Puppet team, and
would highly recommend it.
