Uyuni is a configuration and infrastructure management tool that saves you time and headaches when you have to manage and update tens, hundreds or even thousands of machines. It’s forked from Spacewalk, software that was discontinued in 2020.
Uyuni leverages the Salt configuration management system to manage clients. The Uyuni Server is a full-fledged Salt Master node, allowing you to register and manage Salt clients.
It’s a single tool for automated deployment of hardened OS templates (bare metal, VM or container) to tens of thousands of servers and IoT devices for faster, consistent and repeatable provisioning and configuration without compromising speed or security.
This is free and open source software.
