itamae-plugin-recipe-mackerel-agent gem has been released

Hello! November has arrived and the mornings and nights are getting more and more chilly yet the midday sunshine is still warm. Personally, I find this season difficult to dress for...

Fortunately, the Mackerel team had hoodies made instead of uniforms and they’re great because they’re so easy to put on/take off.

Anywho, here is this week’s release update.

itamae-plugin-recipe-mackerel-agent gem has been released

A recipe for installing mackerel-agent has been released as a gem with itamae, a lightweight provisioning tool.

itamae-plugin-recipe-mackerel-agent | RubyGems.org | your community gem host

github.com

As a result, using itamae to install mackerel-agent will be even easier!

itamae is one of my favorite tools and I even used it for VM instance provisioning at the Mackerel Hands-On Seminar.

By all means, try it out!

On top of that, yours truly (id:a-know) participated in the LT (Lightning Talk) Tournament held on the first day during lunch break!

The material was about Mackerel and slightly unusual ways to use service metrics.

For those of you who came to the Open Source Conference 2016 Tokyo/Fall, thank you!
