Im sorry to say that, but Infrastructure is everywhere; no matter if you are using k8s, GCP, AWS, or any other offering... you need to describe the infrastructure requirements your application needs to run... with code? Are we really using code, or are we back to configuration management? Should we? We will be reviewing how we have been interacting with Cloud Providers in the last 10 years, using scripting, actual code and configuration files. Code snippets will be supporting us in this time travel, while we will be blaming the Twelve-Factor App methodology (and ourselves?) given we ended up messing with templates... Some newer alternatives will be presented (Terrascript and Pulumi) and thoughts about the convenience of changing (or not?) the model.
Daniel is a SRE Engineer at Fastly, also part-time lecturer in La Salle University (DevOps program I had the honour to introduce), previously working as Staff Devops at Schibsted, NTT, Oracle (and others!) where I have been trying to code, build and maintain backend services, infrastructure and (automation) tools. In parallel, maintaining tcpgoon but cooking some extra OSS I hope I can release soon ;). Daniel is flying over from Barcelona especially to be with us.
