WebEx Social (WxS) is an enterprise social networking product by Cisco. Customers can subscribe to WxS as a cloud service or they can purchase a license and run WxS on-premise. Puppet is at the core of our technology stack that includes MongoDB, Solr, RabbitMQ, memcached, ZooKeeper, Nagios, and Graphite. We love Puppet. We pioneered embedding Puppet in Cisco products 3 years ago and have been tireless advocates ever since. We have learned valuable technology/process/culture lessons and developed reusable patterns for: - Scaling to thousands hosts with Puppet - Ensuring host upgrades are 100% reliable - Avoiding Puppet codebase spaghetti - Detecting and eliminating system drift at scale - Creating a culture of shared responsibility through architecture design
