Torque integrates with "Puppet":http://reductivelabs.com/products/puppet (and acts as web front end to it).
6
Torque would take care for the bare bone provisioning until the point puppet is running, letting Puppet do what it does best.
7
Torque will show you *Systems inventory* (based on facter) and can provide information about hosts based on Puppet reports.

Torque can create everything you need when adding a new machine into your network, its goal would be to manage automatically everything you would normally do manually - that could include DNS, DHCP, TFTP, PuppetCA, CMDB and everything else you might consider useful.
10
*The idea is you can always rebuilt your machines from scratch*

12
The Torque is design to work in a Large enterprise, where multiple domains, subnets and puppetmasters are required. in many cases, Torque could help remote provisions when no experienced technicians are available.
