Infrastructure as code – “we are all coders now”

Nick Parlow, Fujitsu Distinguished Engineer, Fujitsu

At its simplest, Infrastructure as Code (IaC) is the separation of configuration from platform, using machine readable files to define your computing environment. Using software development practices this approach produces a repeatable, testable and easily maintained environment that can scale into the thousands of servers. There are, however, major challenges, including what to do with all those SCO boxes. Along the way we may take diversions into DevOps, Containers, serverless computing, dirty servers and what your operations department can learn from livestock farming. With luck, there will be a live demo.
