salt-master

Salt is a new approach to infrastructure management. Easy enough to get running in minutes, scalable enough to manage tens of thousands of servers, and fast enough to communicate with them in seconds.

Salt delivers a dynamic communication bus for infrastructures that can be used for orchestration, remote execution, configuration management and much more.

This image contains salt-master/salt-ssh and other power tools:

• curl
• httpie
• ipython
• jq
• vim-tiny
