How certificates work in Puppet
This video gives you a basic introduction to certificates and explains how they’re used to secure Puppet communications. Certificates help to provide secure connections between different parts of your infrastructure as those parts communicate with each other.

In order to understand what we were able to achieve, we need a quick primer on how code is deployed to a Puppet Server in the first place. There are three parts to a Code Manager code deployment: We’ve improved each of these three parts of the Code Manager code deployment.
