Systems Building Systems
Reductive Labs was founded with one goal: revolutionize computer administration.
Puppet Can Manage
Puppet, an automated administrative engine for your *nix systems, performs administrative tasks (such as adding users, installing packages, and updating server configurations) based on a centralized specification.
Puppet can let you focus more on how things should be done and less on doing them. Let computers do what they are good at, precisely perform patterns, so you can focus on creating solutions. The act of specifying the services will help you clarify the systems you actually need and once your services are modeled using puppet, your ability to scale and recover from hardware failure could just be plugging in a new blade, setting the hostname and starting puppet.
If your systems aren’t going to change or scale you probably don’t need puppet, but your competition might. . .
Service and Support
Reductive Labs releases Puppet as an Open Source project.
If you want to jump start your Puppet implementation, need help with Puppet or have other special needs, Reductive Labs provides training, support and consulting.
The thriving Puppet community of users and developers can also be a great resource.
