They made some serious missteps imho re: strategy. releasing and then not marketing razor server when everyone was shifting to VMs, halting development of the open source dashboard, not really investing in containerized environments, kubernetes, etc.
- thspimpolds 6y agoI actually miss using Razor. That was the best Pxeboot based system I have run into
- stevekemp 6y agoHalting development of the open source dashboard really hurt me, so I setup my own little alternative: https://github.com/skx/puppet-summary/ https://github.com/skx/puppet-summary/ Simple to deploy, configure, and use. Although I always felt I should perhaps have based my work against the puppetdb to get a more dynamic "dashboard" it certainly replaced the old dashboard, and being only a single binary it is simple to install & manage.

- stevekemp 6y agoI suspect that I didn't know about that project back in 2017 when I started my own hasty reimplementation. (Though I don't know if it supported puppet at that time.)
