Infrastructure as Code has been a native open source innovation happening over the past decade, with languages such as Puppet and Chef growing fast ops folks have been adopting development practices to run their infrastructures. In the mean time the operations people together with the developers ran into the limitations of traditional CI platforms where a lot of “Dirty Clicking” was the norm , creating a pipeline for a stack, or new project was a boring manual experience. This talk will document the use of Pipeline as Code (Jenkins DSL) to generate a Containerized deployment and test infrastructure testing different versions of Puppet code (actually this also serves as a Puppet 3 to Puppet 5 migration) for different customers. (Albeit we did exaclty the same for Python, PHP and Ruby stacks..)
