In Episode 31 of the Full Stack Journey, Yasmin Rajabi (@yasminnx13 on Twitter) joins Scott to talk about Bolt, a new open source orchestration/automation tool being created by the folks at Puppet.
Bolt has been around for about two years, and released version 1.0 last October.
This episode’s conversation takes Scott and Yasmin through a variety of topics, including:
- What is Bolt?
- How is Bolt different from (and similar to) configuration management tools like Puppet?
- How is Bolt different from (and similar to) other products/projects out there?
- What things are folks are doing with Bolt?
- What isn’t Bolt suited for?
- How would folks get started using Bolt?
