PalletOps
PalletOps is an advanced deployment system, which combines the declarative power of Lisp with a very lightweight server configuration.
PalletOps takes Ansible's agentless idea one step further. Rather than needing a Ruby or Python interpreter installed on the node that is to be configured, you only need ssh and a bash installation. These are pretty simple requirements.
PalletOps compiles its Lisp-defined DSL to Bash code that is executed on the slave node. These are such simple requirements that you can use it on very small and simple servers—even phones!
On the other hand, while there are a number of support modules for Pallet called crates, there are fewer of them than there are for Puppet or Ansible.
