Small Scale Simple DevOps - Jenkins in an Afternoon

Our goal is to bring the efficiency, productivity, reliability and professionalism of DevOps to small teams and freelancers. We will demo setting up Jenkins, and configuring a set of jobs to handle deployment, automated testing, and backups for a Drupal project. The general principles of DevOps and how they might be applied elsewhere are also briefly covered.

A false perception that DevOps is suited only to larger organizations, and requires a lot of overhead or investment, will be dispelled by demonstration. The audience will leave with the knowledge to set up a system in about an afternoon that will pay for itself quickly.

We will walk through a simple example configuration of Jenkins and go over how one will install it and modify it. The tasks covered include:

* Deploying live and stage environments
* Backups
* Updating development environments
* Running basic automated tests
