Puppet Labs provides system management and data Center automation software for enterprise and cloud computing services. The company's flagship product, Puppet, is an Open-source data center automation and configuration Management framework that provides system administrators with an easy-to-use platform for transparent, flexible system management.

The company also provides puppet commercial version of puppet Enterprise to help enterprise system administrators easily configure and manage virtualization and cloud infrastructure. The company's clients include Zynga, Twitter, NYSE, Disney, Citrix, Oracle/sun, and Stanford University.

VMware is currently the leading data center virtualization service provider, so VMware's investment in puppet Labs is reasonable.
