Devops Needs Sushi
Last week I was in Boston for my 1st and their 25th Edition of the Large Infrastructure System Administration Conferences
Lisa was pretty much all I expected from it. Old Unix wizards with long hair and white beards, the usual suspects, and a mix of devops practitioners on a devops themed conference with on one side awesome and well positioned content and on the other side absolutely basic stuff.
On tuesday I had a devops bof scheduled for 2 hours.
Last week the UKUUG Spring , Large Scale Infrastructure conference took place in London,
Altough only 1 track was scheduled, the content was very good, some talks were a bit short, others were a bit too long. And luckily the talks that didn’t really bring me new content were entertaining :) Also the after conf chatter in the pub across the street was so much fun we almost failed to catch our plane back to Antwerp.
Larry, I`m glad you asked ..
With the risk of receiving a flood of comments pointing me to already existing tools here’s my go at what I as a sysadmin of often large deployments am looking for in Drupalland .
You suggest LDAP and syslog integration .. guess we already have that don’t we ?
But what I haven’t found yet ..
An rpm/deb repository of Drupal modules So we can do an apt-get install drupal-package , yes I know about Drush, but I want the files on my system to be in a package and clearly identified, it helps me keeping my system uncluttered.
