description

The software development processes are evolved from the past, and nowadays you need to be able to respond quickly to market changes, or you will not survive. On the infrastructure perspective, you need to gain agility on managing cloud resources and deployment of your applications. In this presentation will be introduced two open-source technology, jclouds and opscode chef, that combined together can helps developers to speed-up the deployment of their applications on the cloud, and it will presented how ClouDesire is trying to solve this problems offering a vertical service to solve this specific purposes. Presentation held at the #1 italian OpenStack Day in Milano. #openstackday #openstackdayit Try ThreeHops for free and send us your feedback! http://threehops.cloudesire.com

Once upon a time… waterfall model

● Sequential process● Manual testing● Scheduled releases● Hard to deploy● Physical

infrastructures

Nowadays… lean, agile, #buzzword

● Rapid-changing requirements

● Faster iterations● Automated testing● Disposable cloud

resources

Focus on infrastructure risks

● A jungle of IaaS providers, multiple API dialects.

● Different environments for each application: development, staging, production.

● Environments grow fast as the app requirements.

● Server configurations should be tested, too.

Let’s start to aim the target

We need to...● manage infrastructure with code● define infrastructure as code● version infrastructure as code● test infrastructure as code● do it faster and more often. Continuously.● Automate all the things!

Automated Infrastructure

● Stop thinking about servers and start to model services and resources

● Infrastructure as a code● Build reusable components to manage

resources● Integration Testing

Automated Infrastructure - Opscode Chef

● Opscode Chef http://www.getchef.com/● Chef relies on reusable definitions known as

cookbooks and recipes that are written in Ruby.

● Cookbooks and recipes automate common infrastructure tasks.

● Chef applies those definitions to servers to produce an automated infrastructure.
