#devKL - Intro to Automation with Ansible

#devKL is a biweekly meetup to encourage local software developers to collaborate and learn from each other. We're hoping to build the development community by providing group mentorship, and encouraging members to connect and continue the collaboration between events.

This Week

Nathan Howell willl be doing a presentation on Ansible. Ansible is a "radically simple IT automation platform"... come and find out what that means. If you've been frustrated with Chef or Puppet, you might find Ansible to be more to your liking. It's easy to set up and get started with, while still being very powerful and capable of complex tasks.
Each session's topic is announced a week ahead of time. If you'd like to present a topic or facilitate a session, please contact Adrian (adrian@syndicatetheory.com).
