Rob Hirschfeld
Do you keep wondering why building automation is so hard and even harder to share as a community? That really bugs Rob too! He has been creating software to collaboratively automate infrastructure for over 20 years. His latest startup, RackN, focuses on providing team-focus IaC automation and abstraction layers for provisioning Cloud, Edge and Enterprise data centers. He is also building a forward looking operator community at the2030.cloud with weekly DevOps and future hallway-type discussions.
Session
We can hide complexity behind a Dev Portal curtain, but there’s still automation doing heavy lifting somewhere. In this hands-on lab, we’re going to learn how to create Backstage.io scaffolding that connects to actual infrastructure. By the end of the session, you’ll be able to build a simple working self-service portal that requests a cluster of servers.
