Business challenge
Managing software on Windows can be challenging. Most Microsoft
products are positioned as easy-to-use point-and-click systems. This is
useful for getting work done simply via a GUI, but makes automating at
scale time-consuming and challenging. Bespoke automation approaches
across teams lead to gaps and decrease speed of delivery, and traditional
tools for developing and managing Windows software come with
overhead and complexity. These challenges make it diicult for Windows
teams to adopt DevOps practices within their existing workflows.
A Puppet professional can help enable fully automated deployment
of Windows software by installing and configuring Chocolatey as a
package manager.
