OpenShift in your own backyard
Installing OpenShift on your servers with Assisted Installer
OpenShift Container Platform is an open source enterprise-ready Kubernetes container platform.
There are multiple ways to use OpenShift, including in cloud provider environments such as Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud Platform or Microsoft Azure or on your own infrastructure like RHV, Openstack or Bare Metal.
Installing on bare metal servers or virtual machines can sometimes be hard. Having the ability to easily install OpenShift in your data center helps increase the productivity of the IT and Development teams.
The Assisted Installer is a SaaS solution that introduces a new way to deploy a new OpenShift cluster on bare metal basically by only booting the nodes that will be part of the cluster, with an ISO generated by a service hosted in cloud.redhat.com. The service will orchestrate the needed steps based on the user parameters and report about the installation progress. All that without the need of an additional bootstrap node.
In this session, we will explain about the Assisted Service flows and what are the network and hardware requirements, and the needed inputs from the user. We will discuss all the customizations available to the user, and about the possibility of running the Assisted Installer in a disconnected environment. Finally, we will do a demonstration showing how all come together to a running OpenShift cluster in your own backyard.

PRESENTED AT OPENSTACK SUMMIT - BARCELONA 2016
With test driven development, continuous integration/continuous deployment and devops practices now the norm, most organizations understand the importance of testing their applications. But what about the cloud those applications are going to live on? Too many companies miss this critical step, leading to gaps in their operations, which can lead to production issues, API outages, inability to upgrade, and general instability of the cloud. It all begs the question: “Do you even test?" During this session, attendees will learn how Rackspace leverages Red Hat’s Distributed Continuous Integration (DCI) to build a better OpenStack experience for their customers while reducing the time required to not only roll out the latest version of OpenStack to new customers, but also begin upgrading customers within weeks of announcement. In addition to this, the automated testing in DCI raises bugs directly with Red Hat QEs team to shorten the feedback cycle and improve the final product.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

We need faster
rollout of servicesThat’ll cost you
How much?I can’t say
Isn’t there unused
capacity on systems
we paid for?
Possibly, but it’s
all part of a virtual
pool of servers
I’d rather pay
by user
Not going

SUSE Cloud Object and Block Storage
Considerations
Your Choice
‒ Do my users need block storage?
‒ Do my users need object storage?
‒ Do I need to support live migration?
Object Storage (Swift)
‒ Unified authentication for compute and object storage
‒ Control your object storage with the dashboard
‒ More mature project
Ceph
‒ Greater flexibility of data distribution and replication strategies.
‒ Fast provisioning of boot-from-volume instances
‒ Manage your object and block storage within a single system
