About the Authors

Thomas Uphill is an RHCA who has been using Puppet since 0.24. He has worked as a system administrator for almost 20 years, most recently with RHEL systems. He recently wrote Mastering Puppet , Packt Publishing a book for managing Puppet in large deployments. He has given tutorials on Puppet at LISA and LOPSA-East. When not at the Puppet User Group of Seattle (PUGS), he can be found at http://ramblings.narrabilis.com.

Thank you to John Arundel for the previous editions of this book, I had a great foundation for this rewrite. I would like to thank my wife Priya Fernandes for her support and encouragement while I was updating this book. Thanks to my fellow PUGS Andy and Justin for their suggestions. Thanks to my reviewers, Jeroen Hooyberghs, James Fryman, and Dhruv Ahuja for taking the time to find all the errors they did.

John Arundel has worked in the IT industry for most of his life, and during that time has done wrong (or seen others do wrong) almost everything that you can do wrong with computers. That comprehensive knowledge of what not to do, he feels, is one of his greatest assets as a consultant. He is still adding to it.

He spent much of his career working in very large corporations and, as a result, now likes to work with very small corporations. They like working with him too, not only because he can tell them about things that should not be done, but also because he can confidently inform them that big companies don't know what they're doing either.

Off the clock, he enjoys gardening, competitive rifle shooting, and other gentle hobbies. You can follow him on Twitter @bitfield. If your company is small enough, you can hire him there too.

He also holds a master's degree in advanced software engineering from King's College London, and won the Red Hat UK Channel Consultant of the Year award in 2012 for delivering progressive solutions. A long history in software development and systems administration equip him with aptness in both areas. In this era of infrastructure as code, he believes that declarative abstraction and accurate interfaces are key to a scalable business software lifecycle process.

James Fryman is an information technologist who builds, designs, curates, and evangelizes automation in all layers of the IT stack. Over the last decade, James has held roles in information technology that includes the domains of information security, service delivery, IT operations, IT development, and IT management. He has learned through these experiences the importance of automation in all facets of information technology to accelerate delivery, and reduce human errors throughout an application lifecycle. He is also a frequent speaker on the topic of automation at conferences throughout the world.

Now a senior DevOps engineer at StackStorm, James most recently worked at GitHub assisting in the development and curation of systems scaling within the Operations group.

My wife Melanie is awesome and deserves much more than just the words printed here.
