OpenSourceBridge and Portland

June 20th, 2009

I am just back from OpenSourceBridge in , Oregon.  I went to run a panel on configuration management that went pretty well – no fireworks which I think many were hoping for.  I also went to see Luke and shoot the breeze and talk Puppet stuff.

I also got to hang around , one of my favourite cities, and visit some cool restaurants, bars, Powell’s – which is the world’s most rocking bookshop, and catch up with some friends.

All in all a great trip.  I took a handful of photos so I’ll post them all here.

Configuration Management Panel at Open Source Bridge – Portland June 2009

May 20th, 2009

So, because I have so much copious spare time, I am running a panel on Configuration Management at OpenSourceBridge in .  The is on June 18th and entails:

tools are finally coming into their own. Powerful, automated infrastructure management is now available in a wide variety of open source tools. Tools written in different languages, using varying operational methodologies and embracing differing philosophies. Come meet some of the creators and maintainers of these cutting edge tools like cfengine, , AutomateIT, Chef, and bcfg2 and quiz them in the why and hows of their tools and the philosophies behind them.

The includes the following cool participants:

- Luke Kanies from Reductive Labs for Puppet
- Brendan Strejcek of Cfengine
- Adam Jacob from Opscode for Chef
- Narayan Desai of bcfg2
- Igal Koshevoy of AutomateIt

If you have any interest in CM or operations automation I strongly recommend you attend.
