Puppet

  • Needs an agent installed
    • Uses SSL self-signed certs
    • “Declarative state”

Ansible

    • No agent needed
    • Uses SSH
    • Procedural (stepwise)

Version control in this context

  • git
    • branching – develop code in a branch
    • hooks – automatically do things when certain events happen
    • Omnibus package
