<h1>Configuration Management</h1>

<p>Configuration management involves modifying servers from an existing state to

a desired state. Numerous tools exist to modify the state in a controlled

way, including <a class="reference external" href="http://puppetlabs.com/puppet/what-is-puppet">Puppet</a>,

<a class="reference external" href="http://www.getchef.com/chef/">Chef</a>,

<a class="reference external" href="http://www.saltstack.com/">SaltStack</a>, and Ansible. Puppet and Chef are

written in Ruby, while SaltStack and Ansible are written in Python.</p>

<h2>Ansible</h2>

<p><a class="reference external" href="http://www.ansibleworks.com/">Ansible</a> is an open source configuration

management and application deployment tool built in Python.</p>
