Puppet Bolt is an open source, agentless, multi-platform automation tool that offers the fastest way to get started with DevOps — and doesn’t require any Puppet knowledge. Puppet Bolt allows you to perform one-off tasks or orchestrate complex workflows from your workstation and on any platform, including Linux and Windows. In this webinar, we’ll show you how to get up and running with Puppet Bolt. First, we’ll use Bolt to execute simple commands across a fleet of Windows hosts. From there, we’ll run existing scripts, turn those scripts into Bolt tasks, and demonstrate built-in features that help manage and inventory the systems we’re orchestrating. Finally, we will tie it all together into a Bolt plan. At the end of this webinar participants will be able to: Use Bolt to run commands and scripts across a fleet of systems Powerup scripts by turning them into Bolt tasks Create a Bolt plan to combine multiple tasks into one command Featured speakers: Reid Vandewiele, Solutions Architect, Puppet Ethan J Brown, Principal Engineer, Puppet
