Puppet Enterprise is an automation software platform that helps companies deliver better software faster and more securely. The presentation introduces Puppet Enterprise and discusses how it can be used to automate infrastructure from devices to applications across on-premise and cloud environments using a common language. Automation best practices are also covered, such as starting with core infrastructure and working up. Next steps suggested include downloading the learning VM, Puppet Enterprise, and scheduling a technical discussion.
