DevOps for the Rubyist Soul
summary
Explains how Braintree actually runs a Ruby-centered DevOps stack: orchestration with Capistrano, configuration with Puppet + Hiera, a git-branch→environment workflow (QA → staging → production), and a custom tool Supply Drop that runs puppet masterless to apply changes to hundreds of servers. Shows puppet no-op diffs then apply, vagrant for multi-node prototyping and developer boxes, recommends weekly merges, and reports this setup works in production with reduced surprise and repeatable rollouts.
