Watchmaker
Applied Configuration Management
Overview
Watchmaker is a Python package that helps bootstrap a vanilla OS image and apply an OS configuration. Watchmaker itself reads a simple YAML configuration file, which can be hosted on the local filesystem or on a web server.
Complex configuration management (CM) environments may be layered in as part of the provisioning framework. Watchmaker includes a default configuration that will install Salt and a handful Salt Formulas that can be used to harden a system to DISA STIG standards, as well as integrate with common enterprise services.
