Engineering your cloud infrastructure using CHEF. This presentation was given as part of my application to the University of Ottawa for a role as a tenure track professor in the Faculty of Engineering. The focus was about using CHEF for infrastructure as code, with a small tangent discussion on MapReduce, given an example implemented in Elixir. This presentation is partially in English and French.

Below you can find a PDF version that contains an outline for each page (mostly in French).

MapReduce Example

The presentation dives into a simple MapReduce algorithm, and there is some additional sample code that implements the basics of MapReduce in Elixir (an language based on Erlang), as well as installs it via chef. Here are the relevant links:
