| 5 | 4 | Ohad Levy | Torque integrates with "Puppet":http://reductivelabs.com/products/puppet (and acts as web front end to it). |
| 6 | 4 | Ohad Levy | Torque would take care for the bare bone provisioning until the point puppet is running, letting Puppet do what it does best. |
| 7 | 4 | Ohad Levy | Torque will show you *Systems inventory* (based on facter) and can provide information about hosts based on Puppet reports. |

| 9 | 4 | Ohad Levy | Torque can create everything you need when adding a new machine into your network, its goal would be to manage automatically everything you would normally do manually - that could include DNS, DHCP, TFTP, PuppetCA, CMDB and everything else you might consider useful. |
| 10 | 4 | Ohad Levy | *The idea is you can always rebuilt your machines from scratch* |
| 11 | 4 | Ohad Levy | |
| 12 | 4 | Ohad Levy | The Torque is design to work in a Large enterprise, where multiple domains, subnets and puppetmasters are required. in many cases, Torque could help remote provisions when no experienced technicians are available. |
