CfgMgmtCamp 2025 Ghent

David G Swan

Hey, I'm a Software Engineer who first began working for Puppet as a Graduate in 2016. Since then, I have worked for several different teams within Puppet and later Perforce, the majority of which were working with Open-Source content. I now work within the Developer Experience or DevX team, with his main focus being the maintenance and expansion of the PDK

Outside of work I have been an avid reader and gamer for most of my life and in more recent times to take better care of myself, I have begun attending a local powerlifting gym regularly throughout the week, while spending the weekends either cycling around the area where I live or taking long hikes through local nature preserves depending on the weather.

Can you help me upgrade to Puppet 8?
David G Swan

With each generation of Puppet, we have worked hard to improve upon it and increase its ease of use, however with this comes the unfortunate need to upgrade and change and Puppet 7 to Puppet 8 has shown to be a particularly challenging one, so let's talk about how we can make it easier.
