Adding Some Salt to Our Network – Part 2 - Security Boulevard
How our configuration management actually works Following a previous post which explained why we needed a configuration management system, this post explores how we built and implemented our configuration management using SaltStack. It describes the structure of our configuration and the toolset we used for modeling, automating, reviewing, deploying and validating the network configuration in our devices. So, let’s dig into some technical details.
Adding Some Salt to Our Network – Part 1 - Security Boulevard
Why configuration management system was a must for our network, and how we chose SaltStack When we planned and designed the network automation at Imperva Cloud, we split our automation systems into three different systems, where each of the systems has a different set of requirements: Infrastructure configuration – Managing the configuration for the network infrastructure in our cloud.
Acute Flaccid Myelitis in the United States, August-December 2014: Results of Nationwide Surveillance
