A SaltConf17 case study by Jason Poon of Microsoft and Ryan Staatz of LogDNA. Provisioning and configuring infrastructure in the cloud is hard. SaltStack makes it easier to manage infrastructure by abstracting the cloud provider from the configuration automation. Take a look at an end-to-end real world example of provisioning an ElasticSearch cluster on Microsoft Azure using SaltStack configuration automation. See how Salt configuration can be updated and learn how SaltStack makes all this effort easier, more efficient and more reliable.
