Summary
In this chapter, we have seen how to configure Puppet to work in different environments. We have seen how having hieradata in different environments can allow developers to work independently.
By leveraging the utility of Git and Git hooks, we can have custom-built environments for each developer, built automatically when the code is checked into our Git repository. This will allow us to greatly increase our developers' productivity and allow a team of system administrators to work simultaneously on the same code base.
In the next chapter, we'll see how public modules from Puppet Forge can be used to accomplish complex configurations on our nodes.
