This presentation explores the journey of building and automating a modern Apache CloudStack infrastructure at CBS. It covers key challenges and lessons learned in areas such as network security zoning, infrastructure automation, GitOps, and provisioning workflows.
The session highlights the transition from manual bare-metal deployments to a scalable, reproducible, and version-controlled infrastructure using tools such as MaaS, Proxmox, Ubuntu KVM, and API-driven automation, while sharing practical insights gained throughout the process.
Watch the full session from the CloudStack European User Group in The Hague, Netherlands.
