Apropos our joint meeting on deploying websites, Martin Fowler's
just written a blog piece http://server.dzone.com/articles/martin-fowler-snowflake At the bottom, he mentions two important devops books (see the article for links): "The Visible Ops Handbook  is the pioneering book that
talked about the dangers of snowflakes and how to avoid them. Continuous
Delivery talks about how this approach is a necessary part of
a sane build and delivery process. True
artists, however, prefer snowflakes."Hope this is useful. Toby P.S. For anyone that has lots of VMs running together for a dev/test/staging environment, I've just managed to get the rather lovely ZeroShell running in VirtualBox, acting as a router and DHCP server for a bunch of VirtualBox VMs on a host-only network. I can share details. |
