What is Katello and how can it help me?

Katello (http://katello.org/) is a systems lifecycle management plugin to
Foreman (http://theforeman.org/), and the next-generation replacement for
the very-popular Spacewalk (http://spacewalk.redhat.com/). Katello adds
software and subscription management capabilities to Foreman, which itself
offers configuration management and provisioning via Puppet.

Katello might be useful to you if:
- you are a novice to advanced system administrator
- you are managing 10 to 10,000+ hosts
- you want to control the content available to hosts based on rules you
define
- you want to provision hosts using the content you are managing
- you want hosts to consume content that you are managing
- you would like to interact with the system using a web UI, CLI or REST API

This presentation will cover topics such as managing the lifecycle of
content, provisioning systems with that content and enabling existing
systems to consume content.
