The document discusses the differences between infrastructure management and application deployment within the context of DevOps tools like Chef, Puppet, and Glu. It highlights the challenges of using a single tool for both tasks, emphasizing that they require different approaches and tools. The presentation concludes with the notion that while using multiple tools might be necessary, it is important to choose the right tool for each specific job.

- 8. As learnt by - Myself at Monday, January 28, 13
- 9. Start with a personal story My goal was to: Deploy apps Maintain infra Monday, January 28, 13
- 10. Start with a personal story That’s me 3 years ago. Monday, January 28, 13
- 11. Confused Start with a Chef What should I do? Puppet personal What should I choose? story Control I have to maintain Tier That’s me 3 years CFEngine infrastructure ago. But I also have to deploy my apps ... Are these the ??? same? Monday, January 28, 13
- 12. Monday, January 28, 13
- 13. Aha !!! Monday, January 28, 13
- 14. Aha !!! I need a tool that: Monday, January 28, 13
- 15. Aha !!! I need a tool that: Maintains Infrastructure Monday, January 28, 13
- 16. Aha !!! I need a tool that: Maintains Infrastructure AND Deploy my apps! Monday, January 28, 13
- 17. Maintain Infrastructure AND Deploy my apps ??? Monday, January 28, 13
- 18. I didn’t find it Maintain Infrastructure AND Deploy my apps ??? Monday, January 28, 13
- 19. ??? Maintain Infrastructure AND Deploy my apps ??? Monday, January 28, 13
- 20. But Why ??? ??? Maintain Infrastructure AND Deploy my apps ??? Monday, January 28, 13
- 21. They are not the same! Infrastructure ≠ App Deployment Monday, January 28, 13
- 22. Oh... They are not the same! Infrastructure ≠ App Deployment Monday, January 28, 13
- 23. Why are they different? And what do they have in common? Monday, January 28, 13
- 24. And what did I end up using? Monday, January 28, 13
- 25. What did I use? Case 1: Chef glu Monday, January 28, 13
- 26. What does chef do? Installs infrastructure java databases etc... Installs Glu server and agents Monday, January 28, 13
- 27. What does glu do? Deploy our apps Tomcat based apps Monday, January 28, 13
- 28. What did I use? Case 2: Chef Fabric Monday, January 28, 13
- 29. What does chef do? Provision servers Install Java, Tomcat Install DBs Set up users, keys logstash nagios, etc... Monday, January 28, 13
- 30. What does Fabric do? Deploys apps Tomcat based or jetty Notifications tests Monday, January 28, 13
- 31. Isn’t it easier to use just one tool? Yes! Monday, January 28, 13
- 32. So why am I using two tools? Because they are different Monday, January 28, 13
- 33. Let’s take a look at the tools now Infrastructure ≠ App Deployment !!! Monday, January 28, 13

- 41. Hybrid? So - Chef, Puppet, CFEngine maintain infra But - can they also deploy applications? They could... But - it’s awkward ☹ Example: Use shef for ad-hoc tasks. Monday, January 28, 13
- 42. Hybrid? So - glu, fab, cap, CTier can deploy But - can they also maintain infra? They could... But - it’s awkward ☹ Example: Use fabric to deploy mysql. Monday, January 28, 13
