Puppetize PDX 2019

Knowing how our apps are performing is a constant need. But when you're using a tool whose job it is to enforce a configuration, you need to watch how those runs influence performance. If you're not associating your Puppet runs with your environment's performance, you're missing a big piece of the picture!

In this talk, I'll show you the why and how of:
- Integrating Puppet with Datadog to see the impact your Puppet runs have on your nodes
- Overlay Puppet runs on top system / application performance metrics to see how your nodes handled the change.
- Surface Puppet metrics like average run time, resources skipped/failed/out of sync, and number of resources changed across your entire infrastructure
