Over 90 practical, actionable recipes to automate, test, and manage your infrastructure quickly and effectively

About This Book

  • Bring down your delivery timeline from days to hours by treating your server configurations and VMs as code, just like you would with software code.
  • Take your existing knowledge and skill set with your existing tools (Puppet, Chef, or Docker) to the next level and solve IT infrastructure challenges.
  • Use practical recipes to use code to provision and deploy servers and applications and have greater control of your infrastructure.

Who This Book Is For

This book is for DevOps engineers and developers working in cross-functional teams or operations and would now switch to IAC to manage complex infrastructures.

What You Will Learn

  • Provision local and remote development environments with Vagrant
  • Automate production infrastructures with Terraform, Ansible and Cloud-init on AWS, OpenStack, Google Cloud, Digital Ocean, and more
  • Manage and test automated systems using Chef and Puppet
  • Build, ship, and debug optimized Docker containers
  • Explore the best practices to automate and test everything from cloud infrastructures to operating system configuration

In Detail

Infrastructure as Code (IAC) is a key aspect of the DevOps movement, and this book will show you how to transform the way you work with your infrastructure—by treating it as software.
