Colama is a web based virtual lab infrastructure that is designed to track, control and provision virtual machines across today\'s software engineering labs. Colama has got a built-in storage optimized version control system for virtual machine images.
Doesn't matter if you are a SQL Developer, BI Developer, DBA or a combination of those, we all need to have the right tools to get our jobs done. Now that many of the tools for SQL Server are no longer being included with the installer we will all have to do more work to get everything setup and ready. What are BIDS and SSDT? What version(s) of SSDT do I need? Can I install multiple different versions of these on the same workstation? Can I do .NET development and SQL Server development in the same tools? These are just the start of the questions you may be asking when getting a workstation setup. There are lots of other tools out there that you might find useful and tips/tricks in the tools you are already used to. Some time will also be spent on the advantages/disadvantages to using VMs for your development workstation. By the end of this session you will be able to build the best development workstation and be able to keep it up-to-date into the future.
Can you get away with that answer after crashing your production website with a change you just deployed? Usually you can’t, and instead you’re tasked with figuring out and fixing the problem. In this session, we will talk about typical architectural, coding and deployment problems you might recognize, show what data you need to quickly identify them, and how to catch them before impacting the business.

Le passage en production de toute application nécessite de franchir une série d’étapes - p. ex. construction, testes unitaires, déploiement en environnement de certification, testes fonctionnels, déploiement en production, maintenance, mise-à-jour). Ces étapes sont souvent, à l’heure actuelle, manuelles et donc prônes à l’erreur.
De plus, dans un contexte agile, ou les équipes de développement sont amenées à ‘releaser’ souvent, ce besoin de passer en production crée en goulot d’étranglement important et peut être la source de stresses et frictions importantes.
Avec l’avènement du cloud, de la virtualisation et des services en ligne (SaaS), une nouvelle génération de produits et services permet d’automatiser considérablement la chaine de production logiciel, permettant de déployer en continue et à la demande, des systèmes multi-tiers, pour créer des environnements de développement et testes proches de la production et ce en quelques minutes.
Cette session propose un workshop, ou les participants pourront ‘apprendre en faisant’, ou la théorie et la pratique s’alternera pour permettre aux participants de créer et déployer une application sur un environnement de cloud, par petites étapes et de la tester.
Cette session utilisera SlipStream, une application développée par SixSq et un cloud basé sur StratusLab, une solution open source européenne de cloud IaaS.

In 2010, Microsoft released a bold new featureset to support management of virtual test environments. "Lab Management" provided the ability to easily spin up test environments, perform automated build and deployments, run automated tests, and collect diagnostic data. Unfortunately, many teams were discouraged by the infrastructure requirements. Now, with Visual Studio 2012 and standard environments, even small teams or groups that can't use Microsoft's Hyper-V can still benefit from lab management. This session will demonstrate how to configure your existing environments for many of the same compelling features formally available only with Hyper-V.

Jeanie Schwenk, Jireh Semiconductor
Jireh Semiconductor bought the Hillsboro fab and its contents including the manufacturing tools, servers, and software running the fab. The previous company had been winding down for years so server and software upgrades had not been on the radar for some time. In 2011 Jireh became the proud owner of the building, the tools, and its legacy software running on servers that weren’t even made any more.
That's when I started my adventure with Jireh in September 2016 with a charter to modernize the applications running the manufacturing facility process and move them into VMs with no impact to manufacturing. That led me down a path of exploration and questions. “What’s the goal?”
The goal wasn't to move to VMs. It was to become independent of the aging PA-RISC architecture, bring forward the ~230 java 1.4.2 applications (10-15 years old), scale to allow increased the load on the software and hardware in order to ramp the factory output to numbers never seen previously. And do it without manufacturing downtime.
The solution included a transition from waterfall and silo development to agile scrum. Rather than simply migrating to VMs, it became obvious the lynch pin for a successful software transition with the required uptime, flexibility, and scalability was Docker Enterprise.
Join me for this session where I'll talk about my journey modernizing 15+ year old applications and infrastructure at Jireh.

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).
