What is Impact Analysis?

Reduce error rates and get a lens into the future state of your infrastructure by seeing the impact of changes to your Puppet code before you make them. Adding Impact Analysis to Puppet Enterprise lets you see how many nodes will be thrown out of policy, preview configuration drift, and get a heads up on dependencies to make better business decisions with each change to your infrastructure code.

Commit with Confidence

Every code deployment can have an unintentional impact on your business, from service interruptions to data loss and downtime. Avoid costly, time-wasting rollbacks and keep your team focused on delivering value-add solutions with vital insights from Impact Analysis.

Protect Revenue

Unexpected business downtime and service disruption have a direct impact on your bottom line.

Sustain Velocity

Avoid problems with code changes that slow down your teams, add to rework, and frustrate customers.

Maintain Your Reputation

Downtime can violate SLAs and cause customers — internal and external — to lose trust in you.

Report On Risk & Plan Accordingly

Impact Analysis lets you illustrate the story of your infrastructure by generating reports that showcase the potential impact of proposed code changes.

Comprehensive Reports

Generate detailed reports that highlight the scope and implications of each modification to existing Puppet code.

On Demand or Automated

Call up one-off reports or integrate Impact Analysis into your pipeline to generate reports every time a proposed code change is submitted to your control repo.

Catalog Comparison

Compare the current catalog of deployments against the newly generated catalog under specified deployment conditions to ensure accurate risk identification.
