Topic: Salt Stack Abstract: Are you still managing your Linux servers manually, one by one? Are you using Puppet, Chef and / or CFEngine to manage your Linux infrastructure and they having you feel down in the dumps? If you answered "yes" to any of those questions come to Michael's SaltStack presentation on Nov 14th. He will be demonstrating SaltStack basics using Vagrant and then there will be a demonstration of using SaltStack to orchestrate a chorus of servers around the world!
