VMware Outlines Its Own Journey to the CloudVMware
See how VMware, pioneers of the software-defined data center, are implementing their own IT transformation to take advantage of the benefits provided by an SDDC architecture.
Software Defined Data Center: The Intersection of Networking and StorageEMC
There has been quite a bit of marketing rhetoric around Software Defined Data Center (SDDC) since VMware’s acquisition of Nicira. In this session we explore the components of a SDDC. Our specific focus is on the composition of a SDDC’s resource model: Compute, Networking, and Storage. The emphasis is on the disaggregated I/O for Network and Storage resources.
Objective 1: Describe the disaggregated I/O resource model employed to facilitate the use of virtualized Ethernet and Block devices in a Software Defined Data Center.
After this session you will be able to:
Objective 2: Explain how end-user driven provisioning of virtual Ethernet devices and Block devices serve to decouple resource use from infrastructure management.
Objective 3: Describe some of the opportunities and challenges associated with employing disaggregate I/O.

Virtualization to Cloud with SDDC Operations Management and Service ProvisioningVMware
IT as a Service (ITaaS) is a journey, not a one-time implementation. This presentation shows how, over time and with expanded adoption, VMware's customers are becoming more virtualized and decreasing costs with greater ROI.
Cloud computing provides tremendous competitive advantages to companies, putting enormous pressure on IT departments. vRealize Suite, VMware’s new cloud management platform, is an entirely new way of managing private, public, and hybrid clouds, offering:
- On-demand service delivery & release automation
- Capacity and resource optimization
- Predictive analytics and self-learning management

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).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.
Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

Q&A
*product is still in Beta
5. What does compute virtualization do for us?
• Consolidation
– Better use of our hardware
– Ease of management
• Flexibility
– VMs can be on any host while providing to our users
• Ease of Management
– Management at the layer(s) above the physical hardware
• Step One of our move to a Software-Defined Data Center
6. What is a Software Defined Data Center?
Where are the
physical resources
located?
How can we separate
resources?
8. What does an SDDC do for us?
• Agility
– Automation & Scaling up or down becomes a trivial matter
– Self-service for users; frees up IT for other projects
– Cloud-ready: Public, Private, or Hybrid
• Resilience
– SDDC “exists” at a layer above, insulating from issues at lower layers
– With proper design, Zero-downtime solutions are easily achievable
• Standardization
– We can ensure that multi-site environments are standardized resulting in
greater ease of management and scalability
10. John, we already had this before!
