For the reporting side, I'm using a Python project called PuppetBoard at the moment - https://github.com/nedap/puppetboard - and it does everything I liked about Dashboard, and also loads pages in a not just reasonable but fast amount of time. It pulls directly from PuppetDB.
In terms of the ENC side, I'm currently using a Python/Django ENC ( https://github.com/jantman/nodemeister/tree/develop ) which can itself be installed with a module ( https://github.com/jantman/puppet-nodemeister/tree/install_fixes ). It's feature-complete on the ENC side, including support for inheritance and overrides/exclusions, and actually supports parameterized classes (and global params of any data type you can push into the yaml). We're using it in production, but it's really still proof of concept - there's a bunch of annoying things like selects ordered by ID instead of name, having to input param values and class params as JSON, etc. And its only interface is currently the Django Admin, which is pretty awful looking. I took over the code from someone else, so I'm in the process of taking it from 0 tests to full-ish coverage, and then building out the long list of features we have. One of those is integration with PuppetBoard, to make this an all-in-one ENC and reporting/dashboard solution. It's not ready for prime time yet, but if anyone is interested in looking at it or submitting PRs, that would be greatly appreciated. -Jason PS - As an aside, we wrote this mainly because we did *not* want Foreman. What we wanted was Puppet Dashboard's ENC features (nodes and groups, and boxes to type stuff in, but no "magic") with support for parameterized classes and deep data structures, class/param overrides at any level, class/param exclusions, and a simple REST API for all of it.
