Component versions in recent PE releases

These tables show which components are in Puppet Enterprise (PE) releases, covering recent long-term supported (LTS) releases. To see component version tables for a release that has passed its support phase, switch to the docs site for that release.

Puppet Enterprise agent and server components

This table shows the components installed on all agent nodes.
Note: Hiera 5 is a backwards-compatible evolution of Hiera, which is built into Puppet 4.9.0 and higher. To provide some backwards-compatible features, it uses the classic Hiera 3.x.x codebase version listed in this table.

Primary server and agent compatibility

Use this table to verify that you're using a compatible version of the agent for your PE or Puppet server.
