Management and Scheduling:  In Ansible, the server pushes the configuration to the nodes on the other hand in puppet, the client pulls the configuration from the server. Also for scheduling, the puppet has an agent who polls every 30mins(default settings) to make sure all nodes are in a desirable state. Ansible doesn’t have that feature in the free version.
Availability: Ansible has backup secondary nodes and puppet has more than one master node. So both try to be highly available.
Setup: Puppet is considered to be harder to set up than ansible as it has a client-server architecture and also there’s a specific language called Puppet DSL which is its own declarative language.
