What is Salt?
Built on Python, Salt is an event-driven automation tool and framework to deploy, configure, and manage complex IT systems. Salt is used to automate common infrastructure administration tasks and ensure that all the components of infrastructure are operating in a consistent desired state.
Salt is presented as ideal for configuration management because it is pluggable, customizable, and plays well with many existing technologies. Salt enables users to deploy and manage applications that use any tech stack running on nearly any operating system, including different types of network devices such as switches and routers from a variety of vendors.

Developed at SaltStack, which was acquired by VMware in late 2020, Salt is still available open source and community supported, while the former SaltStack Enterprise and SaltStack SecOps solutions became part of the VMware vRealize Automation solution as the SaltStack Config software configuration management add-on for that solution.
