Puppet users - Jan 2010 - Puppet vs Chef: 10 reasons why Puppet wins

It may be preaching to the converted, but I''ve put together a list of
10 areas where I think Puppet has the advantage over Chef. It''s my
experience that most people using or enthusing about Chef haven''t had
much exposure to Puppet (often because they come from developer world,
where Puppet isn''t widely known, rather than sysadmin world). So I
thought it would be useful to have a link to point them at, explaining
why Puppet is the better option.

(I freely admit that I haven''t used Chef much - largely for the
reasons in the article.)

Regards,
J
