Vendor-Backed Puppet Core

Puppet Core builds on the power of Open Source Puppet with the addition of certified, hardened builds, vendor-backed SLAs for CVE remediation, and continuous alignment with CIS benchmarks and DISA STIGs. Plus, we provide expert training to support your team every step of the way. 

What Advantages Does Puppet Core Offer Over Open Source or DIY Automation?

Modern infrastructure has evolved far beyond what in‑house scripts and DIY tooling can realistically handle. As environments grow more complex—spanning cloud, hybrid, edge, and high‑performance compute—DIY tooling introduces risks, costs, and operational overhead. 

The Reality of DIY Infrastructure Management

As infrastructure scales and diversifies, the limitations of DIY automation become increasingly difficult to ignore. What once worked for smaller environments often becomes a source of fragility and overhead in modern, multi-environment deployments. 

DIY solutions often lead to:

• Maintenance burdens: Scripts and homegrown tools become long-term liabilities that require constant upkeep. 
• Security gaps: DIY tools lack hardened binaries and structured vulnerability remediation processes. 
• Scalability issues: Custom workflows become brittle as infrastructure grows and changes. 
• Compliance risks: Internal tools rarely enforce CIS Benchmarks, STIGs, or regulatory frameworks consistently. 
• Resiliency risk: Custom automation lacks vendor SLAs and guaranteed support, increasing exposure to unplanned outages.

Reducing Risk with Puppet Core

Puppet Core addresses open source and DIY solution risks with: 

• Certified, hardened binaries built and validated to improve security, stability, and operational resilience. 
• Guaranteed SLAs for critical and high CVE for vendor-back remediation commitments that go beyond community or best‑effort internal fixes. 
• Built‑in compliance enablement with predefined capabilities that support enforcement of CIS Benchmarks and DISA STIG requirements out of the box. 
• Vendor‑backed longevity that reduces tool decay, maintenance overhead, and dependency on specialized internal expertise. 
• Enterprise‑ready scalability supports large, heterogeneous, mission‑critical environments.
