My discussion this week is with Eric Shamow of Puppet Labs. He’ll be presenting at our
upcoming DevOps Seminar on October 18th. We took a little time to discuss DevOps in general,
and Puppet in some specifics.
Part two will be a deeper dive into Puppet itself. Look for that podcast in early September.
