Having difficulties with passively testing your infrastructure with old-school supervision software ? Your infrastructure description differs from your monitoring configuration ? Having trouble communicating between ops and monitoring ? Use Salt configuration management to change that.
Once you start using configuration management systems like Salt and describe your infrastructure as code, you can then re-use that description to generate monitoring configuration for various existing monitoring solutions (nagios, shinken, etc.).
You can also use Salt to orchestrate the checks and use other data silos to explore your supervision.

This talk will discuss how to take configuration management to the next level with orchestration and modelling.

This involved 20 teams of people new to puppet. On top of that 70% of servers were Windows, making this quite an interesting challenge.The talk will outline the experiences in onboarding puppet in this enterprise environment. Things that worked, things that didn't work and everything in between.

But with any addition of new technology comes a new attack vector: Who watches the watchers?

Tools like Puppet, Chefand Ansible get combined with Vagrant, Docker and OpenShift. Mix inexternal logging, authentication services and apis (and api failure)to stir things up. Then add runtime dependency management throughgems, pip and cpan, seasoned with OS distribution updates and CI.

It makes managing all those different use cases a challenge when we want to reconcile the ability to be flexible and the need of a stable infrastructure. This talk will show how the configuration is generated and processed by a set of micro services, and also how the DNS servers themselves consume it. It concludes on a small digression about how in addition to the common DNS records we use www.facebook.com to load balance our billion daily active user and make them connect to the closest location.

Today’s perception of containers is primarily focused on the “Dockeriziation” of application containers. Or the forward progression pattern of adopting microservice architectures to achieve immutable results. Meaning - Config Management is a direct antipattern..
The proper answer here is that we can achieve proper microservice patterns, in familiar environments using the tools we’ve had on hand all along. Bringing this knowledge into containers has real world benefits and I’ll show you how.
