CfgMgmtCamp 2026 Ghent

Daniel Podwysocki

I tinker with infrastructure and development from the kernel to the browser, having spend past couple years trying to run towards the lower levels of the stack. I've worked across multiple different industries. Most of my professional time I spent across media and financial landscapes.

I largely credit Ansible with pushing me towards the more interesting problems - I discovered it 9 years ago, as a first year high school student trying to troublemake across all computers in the Linux classroom.

I was 16 at the time and it has been the "gateway drug" for anything from Linux itself, C++ and other learning choices. I could say it has saved me from a lifetime of JavaScript!

Last year, I've gotten a chance to work alongside Juno Innovations as a consultant and architect their deployment workflow - of course powered by Ansible. The bootstrapping approach is rather novel, so I thought it'd be great to share it with the community at large.

Building a self-contained, zero-dependency deployment with Ansible
Daniel Podwysocki

This talk will show you how to finally solve bootstrapping your infrastructure/laptop/coffee machine anywhere.

I will show you how I've solved packaging Ansible into a self-contained, offline-capable installer that can run anywhere, with zero dependencies - no docker or other OCI runtime, no python, just a minimal linux box.
