Introduction to Event-Driven Linux Systems Management with SaltStack

Speaker: Mike Place

Abstract

SaltStack is an open-source automation framework to command and control everything from Linux servers to embedded devices. Written in Python, it has quickly become one of the leading solutions for systems management, with one of the most active and vibrant Python developer communities in the world.

In this talk, Mike Place, the maintainer of the SaltStack project, will provide an introduction to SaltStack, introducing users to its configuration-management capabilities and then illustrating its potential for remote execution. Finally, he will introduce the attendees to the concepts behind event-driven automation. He will show how SaltStack can be used to build intelligent networks that respond immediately to events with automation workflows.
