Chaos Engineering with Puppet
Gremlin is a simple, safe and secure service for performing Chaos Engineering experiments through a SaaS-based platform. Puppet is a tool for managing the desired state of hosts. Puppet works using a client server model, with a Puppet agent installed on each host, and a process called the puppetserver that tells the hosts what their state should look like. There’s an open source version of Puppet that you can use for free, and a commercial version called Puppet Enterprise (PE). We’re going to look at Puppet Enterprise as it’s a self-contained, complex system, and offers the possibilities for some very interesting testing.
