"A prototype for a next generation config management tool, and the specific problems this design solves. Three of the main design features of the tool include:

  1. Parallel execution
  2. Event driven mechanism
  3. Distributed architecture
This talk will demo a prototype I've built that implements these ideas. It is written in golang, and is completely free software. This talk will feature working code and a number of live demos!"

An introductory blog post on the subject is available. Attendees are encouraged to read it before the talk if they are interested!

Slides from the talk are now available!
