We’re at Config Management Camp!🎉
ConfigMgmtCamp has always been a place for hands-on experience, open discussion, and lessons learned from real infrastructures. This year, we’re contributing our own perspective to the agenda and sharing practical insights from projects where configuration management and automation have to work at scale — not just in theory.
Looking forward to the discussions!
ConfigMgmtCamp 2025 in Ghent has wrapped up, and we were happy to be part of it! 🎉
It was an amazing few days of learning, sharing ideas, and connecting with the community. Huge thanks to the organizers, speakers, and everyone we had the chance to meet 🙌
We’re leaving inspired and excited about the future of automation. See you next year! 🚀

Jan Bundesmann, Senior orcharhino QA Engineer at ATIX AG, delivered a lightning talk titled "GitLab unplugged: Real-Life Tips and Tales" at ConfigMgmtCamp today. In this presentation, Jan shared practical insights and lesser-known tips on GitLab's Identity and Access Management, User Interface, and CI Pipelines.
Stay tuned for more pics later😎

I'm genuinely proud to have just finished and published a marquee piece that explains how #CUE makes handling #configuration so much nicer!
It's here, on the main #cuelang site: https://cuelang.org/docs/concept/how-cue-enables-configuration/
If, like me, you really dislike hand-wrangling #YAML and #JSON then please do have a read -- and let me what you think 😁

Configuration is one of CUE’s core tasks. People often start using CUE because it makes it safer and easier to produce new configuration files and to validate existing files - but its capabilities run deeper. In this guide we’ll begin with the basics of how CUE makes configuration better, and then explore the potential of some of its more advanced features for configuration. Here’s what you’ll find in this guide: Validating existing configuration files Type checking Generating configurations Reducing boilerplate Tooling and automation Abstractions versus direct access
In case you're looking for it (I know I was...) the overflow room for #ConfigMgmtCamp 2024's main auditorium is in room Bcon.010, around the corner from the sponsors' lobby!
(Hello from Ghent!)
Glad to be speaking at @cfgmgmtcamp, the conference for Open Source Infrastructure Automation (yes, it's finally back in person after 2 years!).
I'll talk about the dark side of #opensource
👉 https://cfp.cfgmgmtcamp.org/2023/talk/PMXNUJ/
See you all 6-8 February in Ghent, right after #FOSDEM
(I'll be speaking at FOSDEM as well, so another opportunity to catch up)
@krisbuytaert can't wait getting together again!
Imagine waking up one morning to find out that your beloved open source database, which lies at the heart of your system, is being relicensed. What does that mean? Can you still use it as before? Could the new license be infectious and require you to open source your own business logic? This doom’s day nightmare scenario isn’t hypothetical. It is, in fact, very real, for databases and other OSS, with several examples over the past year alone. On this talk Horovits will review some of the less known risks of open source, and share his lessons learned from Elasticsearch’s recent relicensing move, as well as other case studies from the past year. If you use OSS, you’ll learn how to safeguard yourself. If you’re in the process of evaluating a new OSS, you’ll learn to look beyond the license and consider additional criteria. If you're debating open-sourcing a project, you'll gain important perspectives to consider.
