Who Should Attend?
We find it somewhat helpful to introduce many of the “big picture” concepts of infrastructure automation in the context of technical and business problem-solving within a specific industry or vertical. For this Ansible 101 workshop, technologists and technology leaders in the public sector will see infrastructure automation design patterns and implementations in the context of the unique opportunities and challenges for today’s state and local government agencies.
Those outside of the public sector will also find highly relevant and generalized coverage of the above Ansible automation topics, and are also very welcome to attend.
