Getting Started: Deploying Puppet Enterprise in Microsoft Azure

Your guide to managing Azure with Puppet Enterprise

Struggling to keep your Microsoft Windows and Azure environments consistent, and to adopt modern technologies and practices?

You need to automate your infrastructure all the way through — from provisioning through application deployment, on prem and in the cloud.

Puppet Enterprise lets you automate the entire lifecycle of your Azure infrastructure, giving you consistency, visibility and reliability at every stage — across thousands of physical, virtual, and cloud environments.

In this guide, you’ll learn how to:

• Deploy Puppet Enterprise using a pre-configured Puppet master image.
• Install a Puppet Enterprise agent on an Azure-based VM.
• Manage your Azure nodes in Puppet Enterprise.
