+## Description
+
+We aim to describe how grains, states, and pillars in Salt can be implemented to get infrastructure as code. 
+By describing the relation and different uses of these features a better understanding of how Salt works, and why it is an option for DevOps, can be acquired. 
+We will provide examples of how different configurations impact the overall structure of the infrastructure.
+Finally we will discuss pros and cons of Saltstack compared to other similar automation frameworks.
+
+**Relevance**
+
+Since Saltstack is a technology used for configuration management and IT automation, among other things, it relates to DevOps. 
+Several of its features, which the presentation will describe and delve into, are using the infrastructure as code paradigm.
