June 17 phpMelb: Automating AWS with CloudFormation; GoLang

Automating AWS with CloudFormation by Wee Keat (Wicked)

This talk will attempt to introduce the mechanics of a basic, but very useful automated deployment pipeline, which enables highly repeatable build of server/application nodes from scratch. This presentation will cover the use of CloudFormation with EC2 instances as a focus, followed by a quick overview of how everything is glued together.

Break, Food, Chat

There won't be any lightning talks any more. Instead, we'll have a break to eat and chat while the next presenter sets up.

Networking

We head to a local eatery, the Corner Hotel, for networking, food and socialising.
