Opscode instructors will be presenting a free morning of introductory Chef training, transitioning to an afternoon Hack Day for Chef users of all skill levels. The morning session will cover Chef fundamentals; introducing new users to concepts and how to get started with Chef. Bring your workstation (please see requirements below) and after lunch, we'll help the new users explore hands-on introductory materials while inviting anyone who wants to come talk about Chef and hack on cookbooks or anything else, join in!
WORKSTATION REQUIREMENTS:
Attendees should bring a wifi-enabled laptop to the workshop. The following operating systems have been tested as workstation systems with the hands on exercises: Ubuntu 10.04, 12.04 Mac OS X 10.7.3 Windows 7 Other platforms and platform versions may work without modification. Due to time constraints we will not be able to troubleshoot issues with unlisted platforms. Attendees should install non-Chef required software before the workshop starts. SSH/SCP (OpenSSH, puTTY/WinSCP or equivalent) Programer's text editor (Vi/Vim, Emacs, Sublime Text 2 or equivalent) On Unix/Linux/OS X systems: C/C++ compiler, build environment (build-essential, Xcode, or platform equivalent). If Chef is not already installed, use Opscode's Full Stack Chef installer.
Limited to 25 Students. Advanced registration required.

The best open source stack for building and deploying your app is nodestack: the combination of SmartOS, node.js, and MongoDB.
That’s a tall claim, but this day-long tutorial, led by Joyent's Max Bruning and Brendan Gregg, and Shaun Verch of MongoDB, will tell you why it’s so - and then let you try it for yourself. By the end of the day you’ll be up and running on a complimentary Joyent SmartMachine in the Joyent cloud, with hands-on help from experts.
You’ll be able to keep using your SmartMachine for free for a month, giving you time to fully test for yourself the power of nodestack!
