About this eBook

This book is written in a Cookbook style showing you how to set up and expand your Puppet infrastructure. It progresses through detailed information on the language and features, external tools, reporting, monitoring, and troubleshooting, and concludes with many specific recipes for managing popular applications. The book assumes that the reader already has a working Puppet installation and perhaps has written some basic manifests or adapted some published modules. It also requires some experience of Linux systems administration, including familiarity with the command line, file system, and text editing. No programming experience is required.

This book was recommended to me as part of the recent PuppetConf. Being a big fan of Puppet Pro (Turnball/McCune) already, I was a little sceptical.... How wrong I was! This is a great complimentary book, and worth every "penny". Good clear topics with great examples, and the ever valuable "and there's more sections" where further real life practical examples are suggested to make your life easier. This includes tools to even write your puppet code for you...very interesting to me being a non-developer :) Keep up the good work.
