Scaling with open source puppet 4?

[Ryan Anderson]

I am using open source puppet 3.7 with a single server hosting the master and puppetdb (with puppetboard for reporting). I am at a point where I need to scale out to multiple masters at different data centers and split off puppetdb. However, I prefer to devote resources to scaling out with puppet 4. There are resources on how to do this with puppet 3.x, but the official documentation to scale open source puppet 4 is completely absent (https://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/scaling_multiple_masters.html) and I have found few posts on the subject on this list or elsewhere. I know PE would be a good solution for me, but that is not a possibility. Can anyone please provide guidance on doing a split installation with open source puppet 4?

I hope the lack of information is not a sign of Puppet Labs' commitment to open source waning and/or decreased use of puppet generally. I've taken a couple Puppet Labs classes and attended Puppetconf, but am not in a position to purchase PE to get around this, and I assume there must be others like me.

Thanks,

RCA

Hi Ryan,

You should be able to follow the 3.X documentation to scale Puppet 4. Some of the paths will be different, but the fundamental method should be the same.
