Provision infrastructure from code on an IaaS platform and establish a continuous workflow to make changes in deployment and promote them into production via testing.
This talk/workshop showcases Puppet concepts like Roles & Profiles, node-less classification and r10k deployment. Using the above methods we will install and configure some of the modern FOSS operations tools available to help us manage our infrastructure. Some of the areas that will be covered are monitoring and metrics, log aggregation and of course infrastructure automation.
The talk will highlight infrastructure as code having an impact on the future of computing as we see the industry move from hardware to software driven tooling which brings quite a number of benefits.
