  Description     : infrastructure orchestration tool

Bolt is an open source orchestration tool that automates the manual work
it takes to maintain your infrastructure. Use Bolt to automate tasks
that you perform on an as-needed basis or as part of a greater
orchestration workflow. For example, you can use Bolt to patch and
update systems, troubleshoot servers, deploy applications, or stop and
restart services. Bolt can be installed on your local workstation and
connects directly to remote targets with SSH or WinRM, so you are not
required to install any agent software.

This project has stalled for two reasons, first because this project depends on the "orchestrator_client" gem which is Puppet Enterprise-specific and it was complicated to package it properly without heavy modifications. Second, because Perforce has essentially closed-sourced its software. [1]

So, this ITP should probably be closed, but the good news is there's now a community fork at https://github.com/OpenVoxProject/openbolt
