[Spacewalk-list] Alternatives

[Soham Chakraborty]

I have used foreman as a provisioning system with good amount of success
for non cloud based infrastructure. In that same vein, katello and pulp are
the alternatives to consider if you are EL shop.

Essentially foreman, pulp and katello are the new tools that are used if
you dont want to spend money on expensive satellite contracts.

Thanks
