Chef vs Puppet: Differences, Similarities, and How to Choose
Chef and Puppet are two popular tools for configuration management. These type of tools help engineers to maintain a consistent configuration in all servers. For instance, all servers might need to have IIS with a binding to port 443 for HTTPS access and the respective firewall rule for inbound traffic. More importantly, if anyone removes the firewall rule, these type of tools will keep consistency by creating the firewall rule again.
