Distributing Software in a Massively Parallel Environment
LISA: Where systems engineering and operations professionals share real-world knowledge about designing, building, and maintaining the critical systems of our interconnected world.
The LISA conference has long served as the annual vendor-neutral meeting place for the wider system administration community. The LISA14 program recognized the overlap and differences between traditional and modern IT operations and engineering, and developed a highly-curated program around 5 key topics: Systems Engineering, Security, Culture, DevOps, and Monitoring/Metrics. The program included 22 half- and full-day training sessions; 10 workshops; and a conference program consisting of 50 invited talks, panels, refereed paper presentations, and mini-tutorials.

This talk describes how Google is using its proprietary package manager to distribute software across its server farm. I’ll describe some of the design decisions and features that allow Google to do things traditional package managers cannot in order to ensure consistency and achieve high performance. Hopefully this talk will inspire attendees to think of creative ways to do packaging and leverage features of popular package managers.
