Abstract
In the continuous delivery and cloud computing age, infrastructure management has grown more intricate. System setup, deployment, and management may be reliably automated with Puppet, a potent configuration management tool. To improve operational efficiency and consistency across IT environments, this research paper highlights the useful uses of Puppet for infrastructure management. Puppet helps system administrators focus on higher-value work by automating repetitive processes. This lowers the possibility of human error and ensures regulatory compliance. To thoroughly grasp Puppet’s capabilities, the article also looks at best practices, installation procedures, and practical use cases. Ultimately, this article is a useful manual for companies wishing to use Puppet to automate infrastructure management tasks and boost overall efficiency.
