Big Data per le Startup: come creare applicazioni Big Data in modalità Server...Amazon Web Services
La varietà e la quantità di dati che si crea ogni giorno accelera sempre più velocemente e rappresenta una opportunità irripetibile per innovare e creare nuove startup.
Tuttavia gestire grandi quantità di dati può apparire complesso: creare cluster Big Data su larga scala sembra essere un investimento accessibile solo ad aziende consolidate. Ma l’elasticità del Cloud e, in particolare, i servizi Serverless ci permettono di rompere questi limiti.
Vediamo quindi come è possibile sviluppare applicazioni Big Data rapidamente, senza preoccuparci dell’infrastruttura, ma dedicando tutte le risorse allo sviluppo delle nostre le nostre idee per creare prodotti innovativi.
Ora puoi utilizzare Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) per eseguire pod Kubernetes su AWS Fargate, il motore di elaborazione serverless creato per container su AWS. Questo rende più semplice che mai costruire ed eseguire le tue applicazioni Kubernetes nel cloud AWS.In questa sessione presenteremo le caratteristiche principali del servizio e come distribuire la tua applicazione in pochi passaggi
Vent'anni fa Amazon ha attraversato una trasformazione radicale con l'obiettivo di aumentare il ritmo dell'innovazione. In questo periodo abbiamo imparato come cambiare il nostro approccio allo sviluppo delle applicazioni ci ha permesso di aumentare notevolmente l'agilità, la velocità di rilascio e, in definitiva, ci ha consentito di creare applicazioni più affidabili e scalabili. In questa sessione illustreremo come definiamo le applicazioni moderne e come la creazione di app moderne influisce non solo sull'architettura dell'applicazione, ma sulla struttura organizzativa, sulle pipeline di rilascio dello sviluppo e persino sul modello operativo. Descriveremo anche approcci comuni alla modernizzazione, compreso l'approccio utilizzato dalla stessa Amazon.com.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

SPEAKER NOTES
We launched this business eight years ago, and the functionality added between then and now is night and day
A question that we get asked quite a bit, is how are enterprises thinking about the cloud now, in 2014?
There are about seven strategies that we see frequently
SPEAKER NOTES
We are seeing enterprise adopt AWS in a variety of ways, ranging from test and development to enterprises going all-in on AWS.
SPEAKER NOTES
If you ask enterprise why they are using AWS, regardless of the workload, they have a very clear answer.
SPEAKER NOTES
The number one factor is increased agility
SPEAKER NOTES
Agility matters because we’re already seeing established business areas be significantly disrupted by “born in the cloud” companies that are growing to enterprise-scale extremely fast
These companies are focused solely on building better products for their customers
SPEAKER NOTES
You have an organization like Airbnb coming out of nowhere and producing numbers that the traditional hotel chains would kill for…
SPEAKER NOTES
Enterprises can’t afford to be slow; 6 to 25 week procurement timelines just to experiment are no longer sustainable for the pace of business.
Anyone that does a lot of invention will tell you, you need to two things… 1) the ability to try a lot of experiments, and 2) the ability to fail fast and move on
SPEAKER NOTES
First, why is agility such a problem?
Bigger economic challenges happening that drive new resource models
Abundance of products in the market
Increasing competition
Increasing power of the customer to choose exactly what they want
Decreasing brand loyalty; today’s customers are less likely than ever to still be customers tomorrow
SPEAKER NOTES
In a world with limited capital, you need new resource models to be able to deal with uncertainty
Acquire what you need, when you need it, and release it immediately when no longer needed
Pay only for what you use
Benefit from the core competencies of others to focus better on your own
These are principles that apply universally across our businesses today.
For example, in HR, you would hire more people when you need them and may release them when they are no longer required. You hire for particular core competencies to ensure maximum output for a job role.
The success of cloud and AWS is driven mostly by providing a resource model that aligns to what the economy needs, instead of just the next step in technology.
If this were just evolutionary, cloud wouldn’t be this big. But, this is revolutionary, because it allows businesses to innovate and execute faster than ever before.
SPEAKER NOTES
Cloud computing is no longer simply about acquiring raw compute, storage, and networking on demand.
Over the past eight years, AWS has introduced 35 discrete services and released over 950 new features. This year alone, we’ve had over 300 releases.
It is this pace of innovation to constantly expand the breadth and depth of capability that allows AWS to handle a broad array of production scenarios.
SPEAKER NOTES
AWS has been located in the Leader’s quadrant every year since Gartner began the Cloud IaaS MQ four years ago.
Gartner stated that AWS has more than five times the compute capacity in use than the aggregate total of the other fourteen providers in this Magic Quadrant.
Gartner identified AWS as the provider most commonly selected for strategic adoption.
Gartner recommends clients use AWS for all evaluated use cases, including enterprise applications, cloud-native applications, batch computing, e-business hosting, general business applications, and test and development.
Notably, AWS is the only “Leader” recommended for enterprise applications.
SPEAKER NOTES
If you talk to the technology analyst firms, and when we talk to customers, what we find is that the companies that have built private implementations haven’t been so satisfied with the results of what they’ve built so far.
They fall short of the core requirements for cloud: self-service, full automation, tracking and monitoring.
A better question to ask rather than should something be on-premise or in the cloud, is what requirements are you trying to satisfy? A private cloud is not necessarily on-premises…
SPEAKER NOTES
When we talk with customers who have gone on the on-premises route and found it wanting, we ask “what do you think you need that cloud doesn’t provide?”
We typically hear something along the lines of private network, private servers, private storage, strong encryption, and robust management and governance.
The good news is, AWS provides all of these things today.
SPEAKER NOTES
By default, Amazon Virtual Private Cloud creates your instances in a virtual private cloud to provide you with a logically isolated section of the AWS Cloud.
Within the VPC, you maintain complete control over the network configuration. You can even integrate the VPC with your existing network and treat AWS an extension of your existing datacenter.
Additionally, AWS provides the ability to acquire a dedicated, private connection between your datacenter and AWS.
Direct Connect can reduce costs, increase throughput, and provide a more consistent experience than Internet-based connections.
SPEAKER NOTES
Depending on your needs, stages of isolation can be achieved with a username and password, a software-defined network, and dedicated instances for isolation at the hardware level.
Identity and Access Management allows you to implement fine-grained access roles and groups for every workload.
Amazon EC2 works in conjunction with Amazon VPC to provide security and robust networking functionality for your compute resources.
If physical isolation is required, Dedicated Instances let you take full advantage of the benefits of Amazon VPC and the AWS cloud – on-demand elastic provisioning; pay only for what you use; and a private, isolated virtual network, all while ensuring that your Amazon EC2 compute instances will be isolated at the hardware level.
SPEAKER NOTES
Data security is fundamentally important for enterprise workloads, and AWS provides a wide assortment of private storage options.
Designed for 99.999999999% durability and 99.99% availability of objects over a given year, Amazon S3 provides a highly durable storage infrastructure designed for mission-critical and primary data storage.
Amazon S3 supports multiple access control mechanisms, as well as encryption for both secure transit and secure storage on disk.
Amazon EBS provides persistent block level storage volumes for use with Amazon EC2 instances.
Amazon EBS supports running encrypted file systems to protect your application data on Amazon EC2. Additionally, access to Amazon EBS volumes is integrated with AWS IAM to enable role-based access control, and it can even be made single-tenet with dedicated instances
For enterprises with enhanced corporate, contractual, and regulatory compliance requirements, AWS CloudHSM can provide dedicated Hardware Security Module appliances within the AWS Cloud. You can securely generate, store, and manage the cryptographic keys used for data encryption such that they are accessible only by you.
SPEAKER NOTES
You must assign a geographic location for all data on AWS, and it will only move from that geo when you actively change it.
AWS IAM can manage users (federated and non-federated) and their access, as well as roles and permissions across most AWS services.
If you already use a SAML 2.0 supported corporate directory, such as Microsoft Active Directory, AWS is able integrate with it and extend your existing directory into the cloud.
AWS CloudTrail is a fully managed service that enables granular security analysis, resource change tracking, operational troubleshooting, and compliance auditing.
You can answer questions such as, what actions did a given user take over a given time period? For a given resource, which user has taken actions on it over a given time period? What is the source IP address of a given activity? Which activities failed due to inadequate permissions?
SPEAKER NOTES
The security of AWS is underpinned by rock solid physical, network, and platform capabilities; augmented with industry leading people and procedures to maintain the highest levels of internal and external security
A strong customer ecosystem provides constant assessment and validation of the AWS platform
Our partner ecosystem of security providers means that you can continue to use many of tools you use today.
Each enhancement and identified best practice raises the bar for security for every customer on the platform.
SPEAKER NOTES
So, which is the better path? Spend millions for a fixed environment that mirrors the capability of AWS four years ago, or architect a private environment on AWS that improves in real-time and provides the flexibility and cost benefits of the cloud?
SPEAKER NOTES
Many customers worry that a significant investment in cloud presents a binary decision.
SPEAKER NOTES
But it isn’t. We know you have resources you aren’t ready to retire yet, so we want to provide you with the opportunity to more seamlessly run those on-premise resources along with AWS
SPEAKER NOTES
On the networking side we talk about VPC and Direct Connect.
You have access controls, so identities don’t have to create all their own brand new set of identities in the cloud, they can use Active Directory or Samo 2.0 to use those identities in AWS.
We have lots of integrated storage capabilities. An example would be our storage gateway that effectively is a virtual appliance that allows companies to store the hot objects on premise, and then all the rest of the data is asynchronously uploaded to AWS and stored in a format where if you want to spin up EC2 instances to do processing or compute on top of it, it’s easy to do so.
And then we’re working with a number of our ecosystem partners to provide a single pane of glass so you can see your on premise and AWS footprints in one screen
SPEAKER NOTES
To sum up, AWS has developed the broadest collection of services available from any cloud provider.
Our approach to regions, availability zones, and POPs provides global coverage for high availability, low latency applications.
Foundation services across compute, storage, security, and networking offer customers flexibility in their architecture. We have a full spectrum of options to meet most price-to-performance scenarios.
We offer the capability for both managed and unmanaged database options.
The offerings for Analytics and Application Services enable advanced data processing and workloads.
AWS Redshift, our cloud-based data warehouse, is the fastest growing service in the history of AWS.
Our management tools offer a lot of insight and flexibility to let you manage your AWS resources through either our tools or the management tools you’re already familiar with.
Recent expansion into enterprise applications has been entirely driven by customer feedback on where they’d like us to deliver value.
SPEAKER NOTES
I’d like to touch on that last area in more detail, because two very interesting services have launched here in the last few months.
First is Amazon WorkSpaces, delivering cloud-based desktop virtualization
SPEAKER NOTES
Second, is Amazon Zocalo
Secure document storage and collaboration built with an enterprise-first mindset
