From pets to cattle to flock of birds—why you'll never need to ssh into a server again and what else the future will bring for appops
FOSDEM 2016

Physical servers are so 2010 and so are VMs. Containers? Well, you're already living the dream, but there's something just around the corner and you surely have already heard about it: AWS Lambda, webtask.io, and StackHut are the new new kids on the block and in this talk we will see what they bring to the table for you as an appop and also what the implications are for your devops and sys admins.

Physical servers are so 2010 and so are VMs. Containers? Well, you're already living the dream, but there's something just around the corner and you surely have already heard about it: AWS Lambda, webtask.io, and StackHut are the new new kids on the block and in this talk we will see what they bring to the table for you as an appop and also what the implications are for your devops and sys admins. We will have a look at the current landscape, discuss challenges and the opportunities in this space as well as have a closer look at the offerings. In addition, concrete use cases and application areas, such as IoT will be discussed. A short demo will walk you through the basics and show what the pros and cons are.
