Presentation: TweetChef in the Cloud and On the Ground
Chef is one of the "Infrastructure as Code" configuration management systems. It lets you automate the setup and deployment of your environments: including physical machines and at least two flavors of virtual machine.
This talk introduces Chef and shows how you can use it in your data center, then turn around and use exactly the same cookbooks in a cloud. Whether you're migrating into the cloud or using it for dev and test environments, exploiting a common base of automation will make your system a joy to manage.

You've seen them. You've probably made one: The architecture vision diagrams. The block diagrams, the message bus topologies... How many of these diagrams ever actually get built?
We never really finish constructing one of these grand visions before something interferes. Maybe it's a merger or acquisition. Maybe your company has a "regime change". (After all, the average tenure of a CIO is down to 18 months!)
The "end state" vision never gets built. Instead, we need to focus on how to flex and change, incorporating new technology, new principles, new business models, and even the last generation's legacy. Call it agile architecture, or meta-architecture, or "how I learned to love laminated stucco." It's architecture without an end state.
