The observability market is undoubtedly hot. Consider the headline-grabbing evidence: multiple IPOs, hundreds of millions of dollars in venture capital funding for startups, and huge market caps of vendors playing in the space totalling more than $80 billion. Still, it has to be asked: Is all the hype warranted, or is this really just “absurdability”? We asked seven industry watchers to weigh in.
I’m excited to announce the release of Puppet Enterprise 2019.8.3. This release builds on a number of important product enhancements based on customer feedback and delivers on the second phase of our highly requested Value Dashboard.
The 2019.8.2 release of Puppet Enterprise has added a significant improvement to code deployment by enabling Puppet modules to be downloaded in parallel instead of serially. This functionality was added to the upstream r10k project almost a year ago and has now been added to Puppet Enterprise Code Manager.
Puppet Plans were added in the 2019.2 release of Puppet Enterprise and Puppet Enterprise 2019.8.2 extends that functionality by adding support for scheduling Puppet Plans. This enables plans to be run at some point in the future or on a recurring schedule. Plans can be scheduled using the Puppet Enterprise console, Puppet Enterprise command line, or the Puppet Enterprise REST API. In this blog post we’ll walk through how to schedule a Puppet Plan in the Puppet Enterprise console.
