Hi everybody,

Following with the Azure IaaS sessions, today I would like to share with you the third session. This session is related with Linux, Docker, and Puppet between others.

Is very interesting because we can see the power of these tools, and how Azure is able to work with them.

 

 

The content of the Day 3 is the following:

• Day 3:  Embrace Open Source Technologies (Chef and Puppet Configurations, Containerization with Docker, and Linux) to Accelerate and Scale Solutions

  • How to Deploy Linux and OSS on Azure
  • Leverage Existing Chef / Puppet toolsets for management
  • How to Implement Containerization with Docker to Increase Density and Performance of Virtual Machines
  • Creating Large Scale Linux Deployments on Azure

 

If you are a SysAdmin who already supports solutions on the Linux platform at scale, you are probably familiar with Chef and Puppet. Did you know they are also available in Azure for both Linux and Windows Machines? You can take your existing instructions and configurations and configure agents on your IaaS instances to point to your servers for deployment. Learn how to implement these amazing technologies for your Linux and Windows Azure hosted solutions.
