It’s actually a drop-in engine for Ansible originally. See author’s blog: https://sweetness.hmmz.org/ https://sweetness.hmmz.org/

  Author here :) The system the library was intended for has never been described. The intention was that Ansible had strong parity with what the library offered, so that made a useful POC integration to get it into working shape.

    Ahh, amazing work. Your original blog posts describing the workings of Mitogen and the pitfalls you've had to avoid were incredibly interesting. Thank you so much both for the project, and for the fascinating documentation of the development process.

    >The system the library was intended for has never been described. That's interesting - could you, perhaps, describe it a little?

    Could you compare mitogen to docker swarm? Also, I haven't seen it mentioned in the docs, does mitogen set up a python environment on target machines? Or does it assume target can run python?

    I have not looked at the code yet, but looking at the philosophy of constraints as seen in the manual, I would say that you did a very very good job! Zero dep, support for old python, support for egg like apps,... I'm really amazed because, the current trend is to have zealots that only want to use and support last versions and take whatever shitty dep they can find that ease their life. But in the real pro dev life, it is brick as good as yours that we need!
