Not sure if dominant but Ansible is great. Leaves a clean remote machine and is very flexible. I used CFEngine for a year or so but most of the time was spent jumping through hoops just to do (what we thought were) simple tasks. Perhaps we were just doing it the "wrong way" but I would not say it was intuitive. It also proved to be buggy on enough occasions that we lost confidence. We also used Puppet for a while and while Ruby is nice to work with it gave us headaches with memory usage. That was a while back and things may have changed. For now I use Ansible where I can. -felix
