Chef Infrastructure + Automation Testing, Nathen Harvey, VP Community, Chef

Digital transformation improves the speed at which software is delivered. Outperforming your competitors requires new tooling, processes, and collaboration. Automation is the foundation of this transformation and helps organizations realize improved efficiency and speed while reducing risk.

Traditional compliance is manual and reactive. Long term process improvement requires proactive engagement and the ability to express policies as testable, human-readable code. Increase the frequency of audits, reduce the time to remediate, and improve collaboration across the organization with continuous compliance. Join us for an introduction to InSpec (https://www.inspec.io/) and learn how it can help achieve your infrastructure testing and continuous compliance objectives.
