Usually people running services/servers will have their own ideas
about what individual packages they want to run and how they want to
configure them and will prefer to use various management systems
(puppet, salt, ansible, propeller, chef etc) rather than something
like blends.
That said, yes both of the blends frameworks apply to any situation
where a group of people with common interests in a particular area
want to define how their systems should look in terms of a set of
packages and configuration data.
It is also possible to do this sort of stuff without any of the blends
frameworks, for example the Debian sysadmins have a set of
metapackages for each debian.org service that define which packages
are needed by the service. The Debian sysadmins also use puppet.
