The Better Way to Build Cloud Servers with Packer - Quick Start

In this video, I show a better way to build cloud servers using Packer —
with repeatable, automated image pipelines you can run continuously across
AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud.

This is a quick start-focused overview of how Packer fits into modern cloud
automation. Instead of snowflake servers and manual builds, Packer lets you
treat server images as code and produce consistent, production-ready images
on demand.

This video is not a step-by-step tutorial. The full push-button Packer
quick starts are available on GitHub.
