Craig Sebenik is the technical lead for Salt at Linkedin, and he has been using Salt longer than almost anyone since LinkedIn represents the first major deployment of Salt. The LinkedIn infrastructure is also one of the largest deployments of Salt in the world today, lending a rare and insightful perspective on not only the use of Salt, but also the evolution of the project. Thomas S Hatch is the creator of Salt and CTO of SaltStack. Thomas is still the largest contributor to the Salt project despite the fact that Salt is now the largest developer community in DevOps.
