Minimal Scripted Configuration, Eric Radman
2021-06-02 @ 18:45 EDT - Zoom

Configuration management is term that is usually used to describe a 
declarative approach to systems, but a new generation of tools has 
emerged that take a different tact. By providing only the minimal 
scaffolding for writing scripts, it is possible to build configuration 
management that scale with the complexity of the environment. In this 
discussion we will consider three different architectures: Agent-Server, 
Gather-Fact, and Remote Execution.
