Not sure if dominant but Ansible is great. Leaves a clean remote machine and is very flexible. I used CFEngine for a year or so but most of the time was spent jumping through hoops just to do (what we thought were) simple tasks. Perhaps we were just doing it the "wrong way" but I would not say it was intuitive. It also proved to be buggy on enough occasions that we lost confidence. We also used Puppet for a while and while Ruby is nice to work with it gave us headaches with memory usage. That was a while back and things may have changed. For now I use Ansible where I can. -felix --PNTmBPCT7hxwcZjr Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAABCAAGBQJW1GwtAAoJELbyKdd+INELyBgP/iLhFNzOED3Q0UTcyPlIYOUm qT6u9Qs4QAgde4nTAD3ikhY22inbCu5HmZpeQpHrneLXkT/YXme2jFFJqf6E29jM lg4RstYi2RNIF9IR2RJ7TtgXTdigxZnchZBQXN7r19ZLQZgcI55ckohr9Xv+7+FQ VIq/EC8HBHpEfpeO3xoUmCuHa/m6E01uiY+ljZAoRINZPCThFZtHSuHLK9vOmNHH uhsEqnlG8+qGOcVPw2gxuT7JK21ykT6C8kKBrWj0dNXM2oWKTv8pNULaQykxT3pm FSpbg8SpT3zPeNgfVi51K+447reycY5On3Z+koQZwidi30v49YA+SsJH1B4gA45V 57FSs/jTkUKamRa/0gK8kqw0q/NhJB3Z6F9wMCqKkFRgHeKLHwrQM3tx5xQkNvzg G9OXg21XK4vtIFb8EcDHbV1TZLOHUQziGO4ePaH5A+pPTbdyUUEJUSMz6GHQKjnq 6FSOi430wba/+r1KsJ0Ll2VFZQsMDBY3oLJ8YrrLGnsCe4RSwiql/rH8K+Bkv7u4 CwzPE3VpRdpxm/hKnXu3iUERHkCU4yncMr9U6byQy0S93jjunKRoa6/1V7fP53jF fWYK5Wo732SKmsGXbJlsrcR/5NscOynjp+cYrDOIGPq89rob5WIoWZuukHlXxXFj c56fJDJi9LIFH/BwH7j3 =VZ1o -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --PNTmBPCT7hxwcZjr--
