Puppet is an open-source tool used to automate the configuration and management of servers and other infrastructure devices. It allows you to define the desired state of your systems (software installed, user accounts, etc.) in a declarative way, and Puppet will ensure they reach and maintain that state.

Key features of Puppet:

• Declarative configuration.
• Scalability: Manages large numbers of systems efficiently.
• Open Source.
• Version control: Tracks configuration changes and allows rollbacks.

To check the installation of Puppet, follow the steps below: i) Update the instance with ‘sudo apt-get update’ and then become the root user by running ‘sudo su’. ii) Change the directory to /root by running: cd /root iii) Check the location of Puppet by running: whereispuppet
