Being a comedy in three parts:

Be Prepared, as there will be:

1. Silliness

2. Unnecessary Capitalization

3. One picture of A Cat

1. Protect the Precious Organizational Infrastructure!

An overview of one organization's initial efforts with Puppet
Enterprise, R10k 0.01, and early attempts at implementing Roles &
Profiles.

2. Troughs of Disillusionment: The War Room and Dr StrangeOps!!

Adoption stumbling blocks, twisty mazes of shell scripts all alike,
and appropriate uses of marketing.

3. Major T.J. "Oscar" Kong Will See the Mission Through!

The PE Console in 3.3 and 3.7 change the game. Time spent mucking about with Oscar pays dividends.

Reassurances

How-to information will be relegated to linked github repositories to minimize the chances of demofail.

Attendees should expect to leave this talk being more comfortable allowing the Puppet Enterprise console to manage their infrastructure, and with some broad understanding of entirely code-based multi-repository methodologies incorporating PE.
