Few applications are architecturally simple. As soon as you grow, you find yourself using multiple subsystems and machines to scale, creating new headaches in configuration management. Help is at hand! This tutorial introduces Chef, a modern Ruby-based open source approach to systems integration. Chef lets you manage your servers by writing code, not running commands.

We will present Eucalyptus -- Elastic Utility Computing Architecture for
Linking Your Programs to Useful Systems -- an open source software
infrastructure that implements IaaS-style cloud computing.
The goal of Eucalyptus is to allow sites with existing clusters and server
infrastructure to host an elastic computing service that
is interface-compatible with Amazon's AWS.

This talk will discuss the on going effort to standardize the interfaces into the cloud. Currently every cloud provider has a unique, proprietary, API for consuming the services they offer. The Cloud Computing Interoperability movement aims to provide standards that will overcome vendor lock-in, benefit the consumers, and allow the cloud ecosystem to grow transparently.

Infrastructure is code - the separation between how you manage your
infrastructure and how you build your applications is disappearing. Adam
Jacob, CTO of Opscode and primary author of Chef, will teach you what this means
in practice - through showing how to deploy real-world applications
with Chef on EC2.
