Hi all,

I am a developer and have no experience at all with Puppet.

In the future, we will probably offer an increasing number of services
to our customers via HTTP, and the reliability and maintainability of
our infrastructure will correspondingly become more and more critical.

We have invested heavily in virtualization infrastructure, in
particular VMWare ESX.  How well does Puppet work with VMWare ESX?  I
have found some material, but not as much as I hoped for.  I am
wondering if this is perhaps a combination we should better avoid.

What are your recommendations?

Jens
