This months main session facilitator: ROUAN WILSENACH

This months main session

Tooling for infrastructure automation has made huge strides in the last few years. Rouan will show you how to use Puppet, a tool that lets you automate the configuration and deployment of the software on your servers. You'll get to see Vagrant in action along the way, a tool that makes development and testing of your infrastructure code easier than ever.
