Description-en: public cloud VM management system
Salt is a powerful remote execution manager that can be used to
administer servers in a fast and efficient way.
.
It allows commands to be executed across large groups of
servers. This means systems can be easily managed, but data can
also be easily gathered. Quick introspection into running
systems becomes a reality.
.
Remote execution is usually used to set up a certain state on a
remote system. Salt addresses this problem as well, the salt
state system uses salt state files to define the state a server
needs to be in.
.
Salt Cloud is built-in to Salt to provision systems on cloud hosts or
hypervisors and immediately bring them under management.
