A status of the Puppet-based Configuration Service at CERN will presented giving a general update and discussing our current plans for the next 6 months.
The presentation will also highlight the work being done to secure the Puppet infrastructure making it appropriate for use by a large number of administratively distinct user-groups.

CFEngine is a highly flexible configuration management framework. It
also has a very high learning curve which can sometimes make decisions
about how to deploy and use it difficult. At AGLT2 we manage a
variety of different systems with CFEngine. We also have an effective
version-controlled workflow for developing, testing, and deploying
changes to our configuration. The talk will...

USCMS-T1's work to globally deploy Puppet as our configuration management tool is well into the "long tail" phase, and has changed in fairly significant ways since its inception. This talk will discuss what has worked, how the Puppet tool itself has changed over the project, and our first thoughts as to what we expect to be doing in the next year (hint: starting again is rather likely!).

In 2010, the RACF at BNL began investigating Agile/DevOps practices and methodologies to be able to do more in less time or effort. We choose Puppet in 2010 and by Spring of 2011 we had converted about half our of configuration shell scripts into Puppet code on a handful of machines. Today we have scaled Puppet 3.x to support our entire facility and and host a common Puppet code base that is...

This presentation describes the implementation and use cases of the Ermis Service. Ermis is a RESTful service to manage the configuration of DNS load balancers. It enables direct creation and deletion of DNS delegated zones using a SOAP interface provided by the Network group thus simplifying the procedure needed for supporting new services. It is written in Python as a Django Application....
