DevOps Series: Extending vagrant with Puppet for configuration managementFelipe
This is a short presentation on the reasons why you would augment your Vagrant installation with a full-fledged provisioner like Puppet and some examples of basic things you can do with it.
Puppet can be used effectively and at scale without running as root. In many organizations, particularly large ones, different teams are responsible for different pieces of the infrastructure. In my case, I am on a team responsible for installation, configuration, upkeep, and monitoring of an application, but we are denied root access. Despite this, we have a rich puppet infrastructure thats saves us time and reduces configuration drift. I will present our model for success in this kind of limited environment, including recipes for using puppet as non root and some encouraging words and ideas for those who want to implement puppet, but the rest of their organization isn't ready yet.

Adam Culp will talk about using Vagrant to create and manage virtualized development environments, making it easier to mirror production servers. Then will cover using Puppet for more advanced provisioning, making the addition of multiple development environments and servers easier and faster.
If you’re developing and are not sure what these technologies are, this talk is for you. As a developer it’s increasingly important to ensure our development, testing, staging, and production environments are as closely matched to each other as possible, alleviating the “can’t reproduce it on my machine” excuses. Whether you use 2, 3, or 4 of these environments is of less importance if they are all built on the same “stack” of applications.
IPython is an interactive Python shell, it provides tools for interactive and parallel computing that are widely used in the scientific world. It can also benefit any other Python developer.
Oscar: Rapid Iteration with Vagrant and Puppet Enterprise - PuppetConf 2013Puppet
"Oscar: Rapid Iteration with Vagrant and Puppet Enterprise" by Adrien Thebo, Software Engineer, Puppet Labs.
Presentation Overview: When trying to debug software problems it's critical to be able to reproduce the original situation, and Puppet Enterprise is no exception to this. The Puppet Labs support team needs a way to rapidly reproduce customer issues across a wide range of operating systems and various versions of Puppet Enterprise. Oscar is a set of Vagrant plugins that handles machine provisioning and configuration to install Puppet Enterprise. It's designed to make building a Puppet Enterprise as simple as running `vagrant up`. While Oscar was originally built for supporting Puppet Enterprise, it provides a general platform for developing and testing against Puppet Enterprise. This talk will go over the history of Oscar, the current state, how it's used, and where to get it.
Speaker Bio: Adrien Thebo has been in the Operations/Software development field since 2005, starting at small IT shop in Boise, Idaho. He started at Puppet Labs in 2011 on the Operations team, and used Puppet to run the Puppet Labs infrastructure. In 2013 he transferred to the Community platform team, working with contributors to merge their contributions in Puppet Core. He develops and maintains a number of Puppet modules and tools around Puppet, and when he's not writing code for Puppet then he's probably blogging about it.

This article will help you fetch details about the Ubuntu based AWS EC2 instance. You need to deploy the Python (2.7) based REST Services in Apache webserver. The core of application is Python DJango framework, which uses a custom virtual environment (vitualenv). The Apache uses mod_wsgi for connecting the WSGI application and mod_sec for security purposes.
Deploying Django with Apache and mod_wsgi is a method to get Django into production. mod_wsgi is an Apache module which is supposed to host any Python WSGI application, which includes Django. Django can work with any version of Apache that supports mod_wsgi.
Read the article further, to understand the step-by-step deployment process.
Ubuntu Server is lean, fast and powerful. Its services are reliable, predictable and economical. It is the perfect base on which you can build your instances. Django is a web framework which is written in Python. One can easily guess that everything, in Django, is also done in Python. Django was developed to simplify the creation of database driven sites. The best feature in Django is that it, probably, is the fastest website framework to create a fully functioning website.

Adopt DevOps philosophy on your Symfony projects (Symfony Live 2011)Fabrice Bernhard
This is the presentation given at the Symfony Live 2011 conference. It is an introduction to the new agile movement spreading in the technical operations community called DevOps and how to adopt it on web development projects, in particular Symfony projects.
Plan of the slides :
- Configuration Management
- Development VM
- Scripted deployment
- Continuous deployment
Tools presented in the slides:
- Puppet
- Vagrant
- Fabric
- Jenkins / Hudson
More info at http://blog.carlossanchez.eu/tag/devops
The DevOps movement aims to improve communication between developers and operations teams to solve critical issues such as fear of change and risky deployments. But the same way that Agile development would likely fail without continuous integration tools, the DevOps principles need tools to make them real, and provide the automation required to actually be implemented. Most of the so called DevOps tools focus on the operations side, and there should be more than that, the automation must cover the full process, Dev to QA to Ops and be as automated and agile as possible. Tools in each part of the workflow have evolved in their own silos, and with the support of their own target teams. But a true DevOps mentality requires a seamless process from the start of development to the end in production deployments and maintenance, and for a process to be successful there must be tools that take the burden out of humans.
Apache Maven has arguably been the most successful tool for development, project standardization and automation introduced in the last years. On the operations side we have open source tools like Puppet or Chef that are becoming increasingly popular to automate infrastructure maintenance and server provisioning.
In this presentation we will introduce an end-to-end development-to-production process that will take advantage of Maven and Puppet, each of them at their strong points, and open source tools to automate the handover between them, automating continuous build and deployment, continuous delivery, from source code to any number of application servers managed with Puppet, running either in physical hardware or the cloud, handling new continuous integration builds and releases automatically through several stages and environments such as development, QA, and production.

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).

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.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

2. Python packages - challenges “ I'm a Python developer, and I'm developing multiple projects at the same time, perhaps in multiple versions, that have different dependencies. I need to reuse packages created by other developers, so I need an easy way to depend on such packages. These packages are sometimes in a rather early state of development, or perhaps I'm even creating a new one. If I want to improve such a package I depend on, I need an easy way to start hacking on it” A history of python packaging: http://faassen.n--tree.net/blog/view/weblog/2009/11/09/0
23. Some tricks are used to make this work without copying your entire install
24. For more detail: PyCon 2011: Reverse-engineering Ian Bicking's brain: inside pip and virtualenv http://python.mirocommunity.org/video/4157/pycon-2011-reverse-engineering
34. Makes creating, deleting , switching etc.. between virtual envs really easy workon <env> switch to a ve deactivate unactivate current ve add2virtualenv add a path to the current ve mkvirtualenv rmvirtualenv cdsitepackages cd to ve's site-packages cdvirtualenv cd to the ve's dir cpvirtualenv
I think this excerpt sums up the issues pretty well...
So here are the main issues for the average developer Im working on many different things at the same time on my dev box Im wanting to also deploy many different apps to the server Both these scenarios require multiple python packages and versions to be available ! .. How can i acheive this?
These are generalisations but generally true for 'default' methods of install. Main point being that default behaviour is one installed version per package and there is generally one place where all your packages go Don't read these out: sys.path - A python script can dynamically alter the search path pth files specify alternative locations to search for packages Environment variables can be used to tell python where to search for packages
I use it while developing and also on the server for wsgi apps (although it requires some workarounds for that...) It satisfies the list of requirements earlier .. hopefully i can convince you in a moment
No need to roll your own by hacking python path! This is horrible becuase its hard to debug environment variables and work out who or what set it
Theres actually much more inside a virtualenv but this would be a bare minimum if you were to build one manually The custom site.py is what allows virtualenv to work – it ensures the virtual environments site-packages are used not the systems! From inside a virtualenvironment we can install directly to its site-packages
The cat reminds me to do a demo cddemo virtualenv --no-site-packages testing #lets use 'active' to set our $PATH source testing/bin/activate which python python mpoimport os os.__file__ import sys sys.prefix # show local packages pip freeze -l pip install nose pip freeze -l
PIP RESPECT VIRTUAL ENV : make sure pip installs to virtual env Theres a config file as well if you prefer Lots to configure read the manual VIRTUAL ENV USE DISTRIBUTE: use distribute instead of setuptools (hasn't made any difference for me )
Nice interface for working with virtualenv , a bunch of shell scripts (bash and zsh...maybe others) I
Cat reminds me to do a demo # lots of virtualenvs cd $WORKON_HOME ls -l workon sandbox pip freeze -l deactivate workon sandbox2 deactivate mkvirtualenv sandbox3 just let it run !
