this presentation was given on 3/6/2012 at the Los Angeles Drupal High Performance Meetup. the space was generously offered by Filter Digital.
Craig McEldowney (@craigmceldowney) and Steve Rifkin (@steverifkin) of Exaltation of Larks (@LarksLA) have been using Chef and Knife to construct their sever deployment in a repeatable format that keeps track of the architecture and can make changes on the fly. This presentation will include a quick 30-minute demo on how to setup chef on Mac OS X, use the opscode managed hosting to test, and deploy some servers!

4. What is Chef
Open source sytems integration framework by Opscode
With Chef, you write abstract definitions as source code to describe how you
want each part of your infrastructure to be built, and then apply those
descriptions to individual servers.
The result is a fully automated infrastructure: when a new server comes on
line, the only thing you have to do is tell Chef what role it should play in your
architecture.
