As the average number of systems grows exponentially due to perpetual advancement of the internet and broader use of UNIX/Linux server virtualization, new tools are developed to manage the configuration of those systems.
For the February UUASC-LA meeting Corey Quinn will cover one of the latest tools SaltStack which combines the ZeroMQ remote execution manager with a configuraton management library.
After providing an introduction to SaltStack including an overview of the main component, installation, and basic operation, Corey will describe his experience of a recent SaltStack implementation.
Corey Quinn has been finding new and better ways to be lazy via configuration management since the mid-2000s. He's a volunteer for the freenode IRC network, and splits his time between Los Angeles and San Francisco, where he's the director of systems operations at Expensify.com, helping make expense reports not suck.
