War story: Implementing Puppet on 15000 servers in a traditional enterprise
Submitted Feb 19, 2016
Section:
Full talk
Technical level:
Intermediate
The objective of this talk is to tell people about our experiences with implementing a large puppet deployment in a very traditional enterprise, and to give them tips and pointers on how to do this succesfully.
Outline
This talk will discuss the implementation of puppet across 15000 servers in a very traditional enterprise organisation. This involved 20 teams of people new to puppet. On top of that 70% of servers were Windows, making this quite an interesting challenge. The talk will outline the experiences in onboarding puppet in this enterprise environment. Things that worked, things that didn’t work and everything in between.
