Cooking on the cloud - An immutable experience
Miguel Fonseca - Monday, February 1, 14:40-15:20 - B3.019
We wanted to:
- Leave bare metal behind.
- Go for immutable services on AWS.
- Re-use all of the cookbooks we already coded.
As experienced Chef users we decided to give Chef-Provisioning a try, and with a little bit of help from Jenkins, some nifty hacks, and a handful of upstream contributions the outcome has been pretty great.
It has never been so cool to watch our CD pipeline build and destroy our application’s infrastructure. It's so awesome that we want to share it with you.
