Build Stuff'15 Ukraine

The age old task of racking and stacking in a physical data centre is
becoming more and more rare as more companies embrace the public
cloud. Having the ability to choose between providers such as AWS,
Azure, Digital Ocean and Google Cloud Platform makes creating
infrastructure easy. It is better to spend time developing better
services for our customers than managing infrastructure

During this talk, Paul will demonstrate how building a scalable
infrastructure on AWS becomes easy with Terraform. The talk will
demonstrate how using configuration management, pre-baked AMIs and
auto-scaling groups it gives the ability for developers to be able to
launch their own infrastructure when needed. The demo’s will include
the ability to launch instances, databases and manage user access

By the end of the talk, Paul will have demonstrated that the creation
of infrastructure now becomes part of the development lifecycle and
that the old ways of system administration is fast moving to become
infrastructure engineering. Paul will also demonstrate that the
creation of new ‘environments’ are just a change of parameters in our
infrastructure code
