Matt Ray talks Crowbar, Chef, and OpenStack integration for building private clouds (VIDEO)

Damon Edwards / 

Also while in Austin, I stopped by Opscode‘s satellite offices to talk to Matt Ray about the integration work he is doing with Crowbar (a soon to be open source bare-metal provisioning tool from Dell), Chef, and OpenStack. This toolchain stretches the concept of infrastructure as code all the way from the bios to the provisioning of a private cloud… it’s a “datacenter as code”.

DevOps in the Enterprise: Whiteboard Session at National Instruments (Video)

Damon Edwards / 

I was recently in Austin, Texas and had a chance to visit National Instruments and talk DevOps.

National Instruments is a rare case study. While it’s common to hear DevOps stories coming from web startups, National Instruments definitely falls into the category of a traditional legacy enterprise. 

After meeting the larger team, I settled into a conference room with Ernest Mueller and Peco Karayanev to get a deeper dive into both their DevOps and multi-vendor Cloud initiatives. Below is the video from that session.

0:00 – Intro
Topics include:

  • How Ernest, Peco, and National Instruments got from traditional legacy IT operations thinking to DevOps thinking
  • Scaling a single web app in a startup vs. managing the “long tail of long tails” in a heterogeneous enterprise environment
  • Challenge of moving developers from a desktop software mindset to developing for the cloud

10:37 – Whiteboard
Topics include:

  • “Sharing is the Devil”… Managing complexity through isolation by design
  • Overview of NI cloud architecture
  • “Operations as a Service”
  • Model-driven provisioning
  • Building cloud apps that span multiple clouds (Azure and AWS)
  • Working with deployment tools (and enabling developer self-service/maintenance)
  • Tools the team is publishing as open source projects (Only the second time that National Instruments has released something under an open source license)
