Do you have the option or desire to use Schwalbe marathon plus tires? They should offer excellent puncture protection, but they are heavy.
Tubeless won't actually prevent punctures, so depending on your needs and ride style, I'd consider better tires.
The tire rolling resistance site has tests that compare puncture resistance (and other specs) among just about every major tire out there, so that could be a starting point.
