Automating Barman with Puppet: it2ndq/barman (part one)

March 17, 2015/1 Comment/in Barman, Francesco's PlanetPostgreSQL, PostgreSQL /by Francesco Canovai

This is not the first time that 2ndQuadrant has looked at Puppet.

Postgres and devops: testing 9.3 with Vagrant and Puppet – part two

November 4, 2013/2 Comments/in Gabriele's PlanetPostgreSQL /by Gabriele Bartolini
