ArcGIS Enterprise: Automating Installation and Configuration

Learn how you can automate the installation and configuration of ArcGIS Enterprise with Chef. This approach is based on setting properties rather than writing scripts or code, which makes it easier to learn and more robust than traditional scripting mechanisms. Knowledge of Chef is not required, as we will introduce the basics and demonstrate how you can quickly automate your own installations and configurations.
