[Puppet Users] Large scale puppet deployments
I am looking for - an estimate on the number of machines that Puppet can manage - a pointer to how these large scale configurations can be set up Any pointers are welcome, Tim -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Puppet Users group.

Re: [Puppet Users] Large scale puppet deployments
At Vanderbilt University, we have a compute cluster with about 700 machines total, all under puppet. The machines are broken into 3 groups: compute nodes, gateways, and infrastructure. The puppet server is a dual-quad core box with 16GB ram, using apache and passenger. All 700 boxes check in once per hour, but we are considering running puppet out of cron on the nodes and gateways, dialing back the frequency of puppet runs. We are using puppet version 2.6.6 across the cluster. ~Charles~ On Wed, Jul 6, 2011 at 7:22 AM, Tim Bell noggin...@gmail.com wrote: I am looking for - an estimate on the number of machines that Puppet can manage - a pointer to how these large scale configurations can be set up Any pointers are welcome, Tim -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Puppet Users group.

I know of multiple 50K to 100K installations and numerous 10K to 50K installations. Those usually involve multiple Puppet masters deployed geographically and locally redundant usually front-ended with load balances of various kinds (HW/Apache) with masters running Apache-Passenger, Nginx, Unicorn and the like. What's your use case and I can probably expand on this.
