Puppet Application Manager

Before you can begin using Continuous Delivery for PE, you must install Puppet Application Manager (PAM). PAM is an administrative console that provides tools for managing Continuous Delivery for PE and other Puppet applications.

Note: Puppet Application Manager was previously known as the platform admin console in earlier versions of the Continuous Delivery for PE documentation.

What does PAM do?

The PAM installation process sets up a managed Kubernetes cluster (or, if you prefer, adds PAM to your existing cluster). Continuous Delivery for PE runs on this Kubernetes cluster, and PAM manages the cluster for you.

In the PAM UI, you can configure Continuous Delivery for PE, monitor the cluster's activity, perform upgrades, and back up your installation.

How do I use PAM to deploy Continuous Delivery for PE?

Once the cluster is ready, upload your Continuous Delivery for PE license and provide any needed configuration details about your installation in the PAM UI. You can then deploy the latest version of Continuous Delivery for PE with one click whenever you're ready.
