CFEngine Community is the Open Source foundation of CFEngine's innovative configuration management technology that helps systems administrators automate and ensure the availability, security and compliance of mission-critical applications and services.  CFEngine solutions are highly scalable through decentralized, autonomous agents that can continuously monitor, self-repair, and update a global multi-site enterprise every five minutes -- with negligible impact on system resources or performance.

Built upon well-established theory and high-quality engineering practices, CFEngine has enjoyed an outstanding security record over its 18-year history.
