Here is the description of Rob's talk:

Chef and Puppet own the mindshare for configuration management tools. But,
they suck, for a variety of reasons. Salt doesn't suck. Again, for a
variety of reasons, some of which are related to the Python view on life.
And it's extendable in Python.

Why do I want to use Salt at all?

How do I even think about Salt?

How do I use Salt?

How do I fit Salt into my project?

How do I extend Salt?

Devops is a very complex process. At the heart is an idempotent state
management system. Like Chef, Puppet, or . . . Salt. But, it's really easy
to use these tools in a way that doesn't leverage their strengths. That's
dumb - let's fix that.

Best Regards,
Eric
