Case Study: ADMB scales automation and cuts VM deployment from a day to minutes with Puppet Enterprise

ADMB Scales Automation and Delivers Faster with Puppet Enterprise

ADMB is a Belgian HR, payroll and insurance services provider with 60 offices and 1,450 employees that was struggling to manage rapid growth in Linux servers and virtual machines. Manual configuration and VM provisioning could take a full day or more, creating bottlenecks for a 100-person IT team and hampering the company’s ability to scale and innovate.

By adopting Puppet Enterprise and using community modules from the Puppet Forge, ADMB standardized infrastructure as code, automated VM provisioning and centralized configuration management. The change cut VM setup from roughly a day to mere minutes, saved about 20 weeks of development effort and over €72,000 annually by avoiding new hires, reduced errors, improved security and freed IT staff to focus on faster application deployment and new projects.
