Novidades

• Performance Improvements - substantial improvements to performance, particularly around catalog compilation. Agent now uses JSON for catalog cache, which can be dramatically faster for large catalogs (#16058, #2892)
• Data Bindings - hiera will be automatically consulted for values of parameterized classes so you don’t need the parser functions. (#11608)
• Improved OS/Platform Support - Full Ruby 1.9 support; vastly improved Windows package support; yumrepo now supports ssl options (#3324); better upstart support; better Solaris zone, package and service support;
• Loading Plugins from Rubygems - you can now install and use puppet extension code (faces, types, providers) via rubygems. (#7788)
• Server Auto-Discovery - Puppet agents can use SRV records in DNS to find CA, master, report, and file servers (#3669)
• Semantic Versioning - With 3.0.0, Puppet Labs makes a commitment to follow the Semantic Versioning guidelines outlined on semver.org. Public, documented APIs won’t break until 4.0; minor-version 3.x releases will add new features while retaining compatibility, and tiny-version 3.0.x releases will be bugfix-only.

Mudanças em DSL/Config

• Variable Scoping - Dynamic scoping has been removed. http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/scope_and_puppet.html
• Auth.conf differentiates between names and IPs - There’s a new allow_ip keyword in auth.conf if you want to permit IP addresses. (PR991)
• unless is available as a synonym for if ! (#7762)
• Pluginsync now defaults to true - Yep, it’s true. (#5521)
• Updated config.ru syntax – When running the master under Rack, make sure you update your config.ru to follow the example from ext/rack/files/config.ru in the source distribution. (#15337)
