Creating an environment

Install Java

Install Tomcat

Start to code

What is Vagrant?

Simple way to create virtualized

environment…

Yes, it’s a tool.

It started in January 2010 by

Mitchell Hashimoto

https://www.vagrantup.com/

What problems are solved?

● Reproducible

● Portable

● Agility

● Automation

● no more "works on my machine"

Compatibility

How does it works?

All starts in a Vagrantfile

All starts in a Vagrantfile

$ vagrant up

$ vagrant ssh database

Trust, that's all...

Is it just this?

No, we have more...

Just an environment won't help you...

Puppet

What is Puppet?

Puppet is IT automation software that defines

and enforces the state of your infrastructure.

● Is a language

● Is an infrastructure manager

Whaaaat!!!

Remember Vagrant file?

Puppet flexibility

If you have an available environment, you will

probably installs some apps/services on it.

Shellcode X Puppet

You need a manifest file

Puppet language files are called "manifests"

manifests/config.pp

Modules and Puppet community

● You don't need to make all by yourself

● Use modules available by community
