Puppet Camp Atlanta, Feb. 3rd
Puppet Camp Atlanta is only a few weeks away! If you’re in the Atlanta area or nearby region, this event is for you! Puppet Camps are local, 1-day events that feature a mix Puppet Labs engineers, local speakers, and unconference talks generated by the audience. We’d like to thank our Sponsor MomentumSI for helping make Puppet Camp Atlanta possible!
Registration is now open and the nearly-finalized schedule is available.
We hope you’ll join us for Puppet Camp Atlanta, the first of many new Puppet Camps sprouting up worldwide.
Check out the tentative schedule below—much of the afternoon will be devoted to unconference talks (ie, you can lead the charge on a topic you care about).

Examples for Separating Data from Puppet Code
One of the first, and biggest, hurdles that Puppet users encounter is ‘How do I make this Puppet code work across all my environments?’ There are several ways to solve this problem, and Gary will give examples of many of the popular methods. He’ll also introduce you to Hiera: the next-generation data lookup system that will be bundled with the next major release of Puppet. |

Centralized Authentication with Puppet, LDAP and Linux
