Chef is an infrastructure automation tool that allows users to define and maintain server configurations. It uses recipes, resources, cookbooks and roles to provision and configure servers. Chef works by installing a Chef client on nodes that runs recipes to configure the node according to cookbooks. The Chef server stores cookbooks and node data. Users can write recipes in Ruby syntax to define what configuration should be applied to nodes.
This document provides an overview of Chef, an automation framework that enables infrastructure as code. It discusses the core building blocks of Chef including cookbooks, recipes, resources, roles, and environments. Cookbooks contain recipes, which are made up of resources that define the desired state of systems. Roles and environments allow for reusable definitions and pinning of attributes across infrastructure. The document also briefly touches on common patterns for using these building blocks effectively, such as wrapper cookbooks, pinning attributes to environments instead of roles, and using base roles.
This document provides an overview of using Chef and Vagrant to automate server configuration and deployment. It discusses:
- Installing Chef and using tools like chef-apply, chef-solo, and knife to configure servers
- Modeling infrastructure as code using resources, recipes, and cookbooks
- Using community cookbooks and Berkshelf for dependency management
- Provisioning nodes automatically with chef-solo and Vagrant
- Developing cookbooks to deploy applications using tools like the Git resource
This document provides an introduction to using Chef for infrastructure configuration management. It describes key aspects of the Chef architecture including cookbooks, recipes, attributes, roles, environments, nodes, and the chef-client/server model. Cookbooks contain configuration code and metadata to describe scenarios like installing MySQL. Recipes define specific configuration steps. Attributes customize configurations. Roles assign recipes to nodes. Environments define attribute configurations. The chef-server stores all configuration data and the chef-client executes configurations. The document also discusses community cookbooks, versioning, testing tools, and performing a live demo.

When we first began using chef at Parse, we fell in love with it. Chef became our source of truth for everything. Bootstrapping, config files, package management, deploying software, service registration & discovery, db provisioning and backups and restores, cluster management, _everything_. But at some point we reached Peak Chef and realized our usage model was starting to cause more problems than it was solving for us. We still love the pants off of chef, but it is not the right tool for every job in every environment. I'll talk about the evolution of Parse's chef infrastructure, what we've opted to move out of chef, and some of the tradeoffs involved in using chef vs other tools.

Deploying NGINX in Cloud Native KubernetesKangaroot
Using cloud-native application services is easy, it “just works”. Many customers choose them without giving it a second thought. However, these app services vary from cloud to cloud, with differing levels of quality and numbers of features making visibility and control inconsistent across clouds.
And then there is cost…it’s hard to know what your deployment is going to cost until after it’s been built. Often the services must be compiled in a piecemeal fashion and many products carry bloated code that increases costs.
Finally, security is often an afterthought. Moreover, SecOps teams struggle to keep up with the breakneck app release cadence that has become typical. Often they are seen as DevOps viewing them as a major constraint on the ability to deliver software quickly.
In this workshop, we showcase the NGINX solutions for cloud native Kubernetes that will allow you to:
- Reduce tool sprawl and provide a standard set of services
- Control costs with lightweight and easy solutions
- Bring teams together with automation and self‑service capabilities
Cloud demystified, what remains after the fog has lifted. Kangaroot
The document provides an introduction to cloud computing concepts from Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) to Platform as a Service (PaaS) to Software as a Service (SaaS) to Database as a Service (DBaaS). It discusses different cloud models including private, public, multi-cloud and hybrid clouds. It also covers cloud native technologies like Kubernetes and microservices. The document cautions that while cloud promises flexibility and agility, the realities of cloud adoption require assessing one's specific business needs and whether a cloud provider can truly deliver the desired advantages. It promotes BigAnimal as a fully managed PostgreSQL database service in the cloud to help enterprises with their cloud journeys.
From NetOps to DevOps, modern app teams need a self‑service, API‑driven platform that integrates easily into CI/CD workflows to accelerate app deployment and makes app lifecycle management easier – whether your app has a hybrid or microservices architecture.
Built to manage NGINX Plus instances, NGINX Controller is cloud‑native, secure, and high‑performance. During this webinar, we demonstrate how NGINX Controller can streamline the management of your NGINX Application Services.

Noah Loul Shares 5 Steps to Implement AI Agents for Maximum Business Efficien...Noah Loul
Artificial intelligence is changing how businesses operate. Companies are using AI agents to automate tasks, reduce time spent on repetitive work, and focus more on high-value activities. Noah Loul, an AI strategist and entrepreneur, has helped dozens of companies streamline their operations using smart automation. He believes AI agents aren't just tools—they're workers that take on repeatable tasks so your human team can focus on what matters. If you want to reduce time waste and increase output, AI agents are the next move.
Artificial Intelligence is providing benefits in many areas of work within the heritage sector, from image analysis, to ideas generation, and new research tools. However, it is more critical than ever for people, with analogue intelligence, to ensure the integrity and ethical use of AI. Including real people can improve the use of AI by identifying potential biases, cross-checking results, refining workflows, and providing contextual relevance to AI-driven results.
News about the impact of AI often paints a rosy picture. In practice, there are many potential pitfalls. This presentation discusses these issues and looks at the role of analogue intelligence and analogue interfaces in providing the best results to our audiences. How do we deal with factually incorrect results? How do we get content generated that better reflects the diversity of our communities? What roles are there for physical, in-person experiences in the digital world?

AI Changes Everything – Talk at Cardiff Metropolitan University, 29th April 2...Alan Dix
Talk at the final event of Data Fusion Dynamics: A Collaborative UK-Saudi Initiative in Cybersecurity and Artificial Intelligence funded by the British Council UK-Saudi Challenge Fund 2024, Cardiff Metropolitan University, 29th April 2025

Is AI just another technology, or does it fundamentally change the way we live and think?
Every technology has a direct impact with micro-ethical consequences, some good, some bad. However more profound are the ways in which some technologies reshape the very fabric of society with macro-ethical impacts. The invention of the stirrup revolutionised mounted combat, but as a side effect gave rise to the feudal system, which still shapes politics today. The internal combustion engine offers personal freedom and creates pollution, but has also transformed the nature of urban planning and international trade. When we look at AI the micro-ethical issues, such as bias, are most obvious, but the macro-ethical challenges may be greater.
At a micro-ethical level AI has the potential to deepen social, ethnic and gender bias, issues I have warned about since the early 1990s! It is also being used increasingly on the battlefield. However, it also offers amazing opportunities in health and educations, as the recent Nobel prizes for the developers of AlphaFold illustrate. More radically, the need to encode ethics acts as a mirror to surface essential ethical problems and conflicts.
At the macro-ethical level, by the early 2000s digital technology had already begun to undermine sovereignty (e.g. gambling), market economics (through network effects and emergent monopolies), and the very meaning of money. Modern AI is the child of big data, big computation and ultimately big business, intensifying the inherent tendency of digital technology to concentrate power. AI is already unravelling the fundamentals of the social, political and economic world around us, but this is a world that needs radical reimagining to overcome the global environmental and human challenges that confront us. Our challenge is whether to let the threads fall as they may, or to use them to weave a better future.
