A survey of system configuration tools
Thomas Delaet, Wouter Joosen, Bart Vanbrabant · Lirias · 2010
We believe that informed choices are better choices. When you adopt a system configuration tool, it implies a significant investment in time and/or money. Before making such an investment, you want to pick the right tool for your environment. Therefore, you want to compare tools with each other before making a decision. To help you make an informed choice, we develop a comparison framework for system configuration tools. We evaluate 11 existing open-source and commercial system configuration tools with this framework. If you use our framework, you will make a better choice in less time.
