Preparing for the day after tomorrow - Test Driven Infrastructure
With infrastructure and application automation, we have gained the tools to change systems rapidly. However, with increased project size, complexity, and requirements, its is very challenging to meet the time and quality expectations. In order to build a high velocity organization, uncertainty and complexity need to be reduced to gain speed while working in a trusted environment. This talk will introduce a DevOps workflow that helps to establish trust in your software development and release process. Moreover, we will look into the management of divergent environments, from legacy systems to modern clouds by using InSpec and Test-Kitchen.
Learning from Configuration Management
This talk is an in-depth look at all we have learned and what we love about Chef, configuration management, and DevOps. We'll explore the pain points that still exist, especially as teams try to bring containers and microservices into production. We’ll then explore how with Habitat, the apps you build, deploy, and manage behave consistently in any runtime — metal, VMs, containers, and PaaS. You'll spend less time on the environment and more time building features.
