Abstract
We all know and use salt, that condiment that sits on every table and within every packet of crisps adding that desirable taste tuned to exactly what we require. When we talk about Salt in terms of automating our IT enterprise, we are less concerned with sodium chloride and more focused on the tuning element. We need to “salt” our systems so they are tuned to perfection and meet the desired state that we seek.
