Otter is an infrastructure automation tool that runs under Microsoft Windows, designed by the software company Inedo. Otter utilizes Infrastructure as Code to model infrastructure and configuration.[1]
Otter provisions and configures servers automatically, without logging in to a command prompt.[2]
Key areas
Otter focuses on two key areas:[1]
- Configuration automation - Otter allows users to model the configuration of servers, roles, and environments; monitor for drift, schedule changes, and ensure consistency across servers Script error: No such module "Unsubst".
- Orchestration automation - Otter can spin up cloud servers, build containers, deploy packages, patch servers, or any other multi-server/service automation Script error: No such module "Unsubst".
Otter can continuously monitor for server configuration drift, can automatically remediate drift, and can send notification when drift occurs.[3]
Key features
Otter has a visual, web-based user interface that is designed to "create complex configurations and orchestrations using the intuitive, drag-and-drop editor, and then switch to-and-from code/text mode as needed."[4] Otter aims to enable DevOps practices through its UI, and shows the configuration state of an organization's servers infrastructure (local, virtual, cloud-built).[5] Otter supports Microsoft Windows, and supports Linux-based operating systems through SSH-based agents.[6]
Otter monitors servers for configuration changes, and reports when the configuration has drifted.[7] It supports both agent and agentless Windows servers.[8]
From version 1.5, Otter integrates with Atlassian Jira and Git via extensions.[9]
PowerShell
Otter allows the use of Windows PowerShell scripts.[4]
