About the Author
Michael Duffy is a technology consultant who spends far too much of his time getting
excited about automation tools. Michael lives in a tiny village in Suffolk and when he isn't
reading, writing, or playing with automation and infrastructure tools, he can be found
spending as much time as he can with his family.
He runs his own consultancy, Stunt Hamster Ltd, and spends a lot of time telling clients that
DevOps is an approach rather than a job title. Stunt Hamster Ltd. has provided services to
clients as large as Telefonica O2 and BskyB and is currently working on software to ease the
pain of managing decentralized platforms.
Michael has previously written Puppet Reporting and Monitoring, published by
Packt Publishing.
This book would not have been possible without my amazing wife Bethan.
I would not have been able to complete this book without her boundless
patience, love, and understanding.
I also want to thank my fantastic daughter, Meg, and my incredible son,
Griff; you guys have patiently put up with Daddy hiding in his ofce and have
been a source of absolute joy to me.
One last vote of thanks must go to the editors and especially to the
dedicated band of reviewers; without you guys, this book would have
contained much more gibberish than it actually does.
