Migrate and Synchronize GeoServer configuration with Terraform
07-18, 14:30–15:00 (Europe/Sarajevo), EL11

The Terraform Provider for GeoServer configuration management keeps improving. After an overview of the changes of the past year, we will see how to take advantage of the terraform ecosystem to make configuration management easier. We will finish to see how you can use the provider together with terraformer to synchronize environments or to migrate from GeoServer to GeoServer Cloud.
