Greetings everybody!

For our 10th meetup, we are excited to welcome key author of Nurse, Brian Sherwin, from LinkedIn where he will share Nurse and the design decisions they have made and the adoption levels at LinkedIn. In addition, Dmitri Zimine, who is co-founder of the workflow based StackStorm will put into context the recent resurgence of event driven DevOps automation and workflows.

Abstract:

Recently there has been a resurgence of interest in projects that tie together environments with the aid of imperative workflows. Such projects range from Facebook's FBAR to LinkedIn's Nurse to Pintrest's Pinball to Spotify's Luigi and StackStorm's workflow based solution.

In this meet-up we welcome the key author of Nurse, Brian Sherwin, from LinkedIn where he will share Nurse and the design decisions they have made and the adoption levels at LinkedIn. In addition, Dmitri Zimine, who is co-founder of the workflow based StackStorm will put into context the recent resurgence of event driven DevOps automation and workflows.

Some questions sure to arise: When imperative, when declarative? Does imperative mean you cannot embrace infrastructure as code for your automation? How do you avoid the dreaded infinite loop? How about flapping What went wrong with run book automation and how are we avoiding that fate today?
