Running Puppet from mgmt on overdrive
2020-02-04, 16:00–16:50, B.1.015

We added Puppet support to mgmt quite early on. You can run Puppet manifests through mgmt's engine, and mgmt can in turn rely on Puppet to synchronize resources that mgmt does not natively support. This incurs a significant performance overhead to each resource check, though.

This presentation showcases a new prototype feature of mgmt that allows for the use of the Puppet bridge with no performance penalties. It features live demos, and the concept and implementation are briefly explained.
