After going through the basic concepts of Salt, we will finally in this chapter get hands-on with Salt. We will have the chance to work on a real-life scenario and to design and install proof-of-concept infrastructure for our potential customer. We will do such things as the following:
- Provisioning cloud infrastructure via Terraform
- Installing and configuring Salt masters
- Installing and configuring minions
- Creating states and formulas for minions
- Provisioning a load balancer via Salt
After performing these tasks, you should have the basic knowledge and hands-on experience to start learning Salt more in depth.
