How to Generate a New Puppet Module with VS Code and GitHub Copilot

Revolutionize your infrastructure by leveraging AI tooling in the Puppet ecosystem. In this technical demonstration, we explore how to significantly reduce the time required to create new Puppet modules using Visual Studio Code, GitHub Copilot, and the Puppet Model Context Protocol (MCP) server.

Integrating DCIM and ServiceNow: 4 Customer Success Stories

Managing assets, tickets, and workflows across multiple data center sites can be complex and time-consuming. When IT service management (ITSM) and DCIM tools operate in separate silos, teams often face incomplete information, duplicated effort, and limited visibility into the physical infrastructure. Integrating Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) software with ITSM platforms like ServiceNow ensures that asset, configuration, and ticket data remain aligned across systems.
