Implementing and Operating Cisco Data Center Core Technologies (DCCOR) — Question 491
A customer has a requirement for an automation solution that supports periodically acquiring configuration from a centralized server and aligning UCS servers to their desired state.
Which open-source tool meets this requirement?
Answer options
- A. SaltStack
- B. Kubernetes
- C. Puppet
- D. Terraform
Correct answer: C
Explanation
Puppet is designed for configuration management, allowing it to regularly pull configurations and enforce the desired state on servers, fulfilling the client's requirements. SaltStack, while also a configuration management tool, is not as commonly used for this specific need. Kubernetes is primarily for container orchestration and does not align with the requirement. Terraform focuses on infrastructure provisioning rather than configuration management.
