Do you use your powers for good or for awesome? Senior #DevOps Engineer at a major research institution (views/opinions my own) and a severe #Linux and #opensource enthusiast. Also into #retrocomputing, #fountainpens, #Volkswagen, #music, and #cooking. #fedi22 Hoosier currently living in California. Pixelfed: @vwbusguy Video game talk: @vwbusguy

How many #DevOps engineers does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

At least 3.

One to write the Jenkinsfile that calls the Ansible playbook that checks the status of 1,000s of lightbulbs across the org to screw in the one that is loose - and two to review the pull request to merge that file into the main branch so it gets deployed in prod.

I've definitely used Jenkins to spin up AWS Infra befpre for CI, JMeter, etc. stuff and it works.

If you read this and like me want to `terraform destroy` the #terraform from your infrastructure, check out @geerlingguy's book on #Ansible for #DevOps! (He discounted it to cheap-as-free recently, but buy it any way if you can.)

I am going to miss Hashicorp Vault, though 😭
