The resurgence of Infrastructure as Code - with Paul Stack


Details
The IaC community and ecosystem is going through a major growth phase right now - we are no longer limited to just writing config files that grow and are hard to change. We are at the point of realising that infrastructure code is just the same as application code - it needs the ability to change and adapt to new demands and requirements. A lot of people are fast starting to understand that the ability to change fast means bringing software development practices to the fold. This includes testing, refactoring and continuous integration and delivery.
In this talk, Paul will demonstrate how the emerging trends in the ecosystem is allowing us to be able to build our own internal tooling for our companies. These tools allow us to be well tested, versioned, secure and enable best practices on our users.
