Puppet open source > Puppet Enterprise

[Alfredo De Luca]

Hi all.
We are evaluating Puppet open source for our infrastructure and so far
so (very) good. Now my question is if in the future we want to migrate
to Puppet Enterprise will be an easy job or we need basically to
re-create everything from scratch?
Any clue/idea/documentation would be welcome!

I don't really see any reason why switching should not be possible and
I'm not aware of anything that should block you from just switching over.

It might require some steps to port over certs and so on, although I
don't really see any blocker there and why this should not work as
flawless as just installing PE.

Thanks Peter.
I am sure you can switch but what I wasn't sure if it is an EASY job or not.

Thanks for your feedback

Regards

From what I hear from reliable sources, it might be less easy as it
should be, at this time at least. Although if you just got started with
a proof of concept, then your infrastructure is not yet heavily
customized, yes? That *will* make things easier for you.

If you go ahead and buy PE, then I believe you are entitled to procure
help from Puppet Labs, yes? Do that thing then :)

Best,
Felix
