[TriPython] Triangle Linux User Group, Thursday, 12 May 2016 Topic: Ansible in Real Life

[Jeremy Davis]

Fellow Triangle Python Users Group,

We have an excellent Ansible topic lined up! Ansible is a configuration
management and provisioning tool, similar to Chef, Puppet or Salt. However
it is written in Python, which may be of interest. I am sure some of you
already know the speaker Joseph Tate. Come join us for pizza and enjoy the
talk. http://trilug.org

Topic: Ansible in Real Life
Presenter: Joseph Tate
When: Thursday, 12 May 2016 - 7:00pm to 9:00pm
Where: Bandwidth, NC State Centennial Campus

Abstract:

Developing, testing, staging, and deploying python server applications is
simplified when the same tool manages all of your various operating
environments. Learn how to use Ansible to manage all of these environments
from a single set of inventories and playbooks.

Joseph will talk in depth about how to use inventories and playbooks
intelligently to deploy your application stack to developer workstations
(e.g., Vagrant), test systems (e.g., Jenkins), full test environments
(permanent or ephemeral), and even to production servers without repeating
yourself, or building a bunch of if/else/fi or switch statements in bash.

Bio:

Joseph began programming in 1994 in TurboPascal after dabbling a bit in
basic on Apple II, Commodore VIC-20, and DOS, cut his first open source
teeth on PHP earning commit access to a couple of modules in 2001, and
since has contributed to many other projects. He saw the light in 2005 when
he began developing web based applications in Python (TurboGears pre-1.0)
He now contributes most regularly to CherryPy and a couple of pet projects.
A long time RPM slinger, he worked for the now defunct rPath from 2005-2009
building system configuration and distro building software. Now he runs the
completely virtual infrastructure and continuous testing and build system
for a small SaaS startup in California from his evil lair^W^Wbasement.
Joseph holds a BSE in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from Duke
University, contributes regularly to his local Linux and Python User
Groups, and has reluctantly been awarded five software patents. He thinks
VIM is the best editor. Joseph lives in Durham, NC.
