IronSysAdmin: Tonight's Secret Ingredient is Chef
This talk will introduce Chef, an open source configuration, infrastructure, and deployment management tool from Opscode (http://www.opscode.com/chef/). We'll see a demo of managing a few machines with Chef, talk about the problems this solves, and discuss why you want to use the same tool Facebook uses to manage their infrastructure, even in a one person shop. You'll discover peace and tranquillity through managing configuration as code and learn more about the DevOps movement, why it's not that new to a lot of web makers, and why you should still care.

Ok - I <3 the Bender/Futurama theme. Maybe you can talk about how Chef is the Future of config management :)

How's this for a title: "IronSysAdmin: Chef - The Secret Ingredient"

All my talks must have, or be about, robots. That's just a rule.

@seanyo New title. Too long for the Meetup page?

Might be able to pull in Vagrant for the demo. In which case the talk will be called Opening a Soup Kitchen: Using Vagrant and Chef. Then again, that might be a different talk. More demo, less talky.
