End to End Model Development to Deployment using SageMakerAmazon Web Services
End to End Model Development to Deployment Using SageMaker
In this session we would be developing a model for image classification model (a convolutional neural network, or CNN). We would start off with some theory about CNNs, explore how they learn an image and then proceed towards hands-on lab. We would be using Amazon SageMaker to develop the model in Python, train the model and then to finally create an endpoint and run inference against it. We would be using a custom Conda Kernel for this exercise and would be looking at leveraging SageMaker features like LifeCycle Configurations to help us prepare the notebook before launch. Finally we would be deploying the model in production and run inference against it. We would also be able to monitor various parameters for endpoint performance such as endpoint’s CPU/Memory and Model inference performance metrics.
Level: 200-300
This session will build on the previous one, focusing on performance and cost optimization. First, we'll show you how to automatically tune hyper-parameters, and quickly converge to optimal models. Second, you'll learn how to use SageMaker Neo, a new service that optimizes models for the underlying hardware architecture. Third, we'll show you how Elastic Inference lets you attach GPU acceleration to EC2 and SageMaker instances at the fraction of the cost of a full-fledged GPU instance. Finally, we'll share additional cost optimization tips for SageMaker.
Improving Availability & Lowering Costs with Auto Scaling & Amazon EC2 (CPN20...Amazon Web Services
Running your Amazon EC2 instances in Auto Scaling groups allows you to improve your application's availability right out of the box. Auto Scaling replaces impaired or unhealthy instances automatically to maintain your desired number of instances (even if that number is one). You can also use Auto Scaling to automate the provisioning of new instances and software configurations as well as to track of usage and costs by app, project, or cost center. Of course, you can also use Auto Scaling to adjust capacity as needed - on demand, on a schedule, or dynamically based on demand. In this session, we show you a few of the tools you can use to enable Auto Scaling for the applications you run on Amazon EC2. We also share tips and tricks we've picked up from customers such as Netflix, Adobe, Nokia, and Amazon.com about managing capacity, balancing performance against cost, and optimizing availability.

Revolutionize DevOps lifecycle with Amazon CodeCatalyst and DevOps Guru at De...Vadym Kazulkin
AWS is on a journey to revolutionize DevOps using the latest technologies. In this talk I'll introduce 2 Amazon services which cover different stages of the DevOps lifecycle: CodeCatalyst and DevOps Guru.
Amazon CodeCatalyst is an integrated service for software development teams adopting continuous integration and deployment practices into their software development process. CodeCatalyst puts the tools you need all in one place. You can plan work, collaborate on code, and build, test, and deploy applications with continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD) tools. You can also integrate AWS resources with your projects by connecting your AWS accounts to your CodeCatalyst space. By managing all of the stages and aspects of your application lifecycle in one tool, you can deliver software quickly and confidently.
Amazon DevOps Guru analyzes data like application metrics, logs, events, and traces to establish baseline operational behavior and then uses ML to detect anomalies. The service uses pre-trained ML models that are able to identify spikes in application requests, so it knows when to alert and when not to.
This workshop is designed to expose you to a number of AWS services that can be part of a threat detection and remediation strategy. We will cover the following services: Amazon GuardDuty, Amazon Macie, Amazon Inspector, Amazon CloudWatch (Events & Logs), AWS Lambda, Amazon SNS, Amazon S3, VPC Flow Logs, DNS Logs and AWS CloudTrail. You will learn how to use these services to set up a notification and remediation pipeline, to investigate threats during and after an attack, and how to evaluate what additional alerts and automated remediations should be deployed. We will go through a simulated attack scenario that will generate real GuardDuty findings and Macie alerts. We will investigate the attack, examine the threats, remediate the attack and investigate additional automated remediations that can be used in the future.

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).

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:

Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.
DevOps and Testing slides at DASA ConnectKari Kakkonen
My and Rik Marselis slides at 30.5.2024 DASA Connect conference. We discuss about what is testing, then what is agile testing and finally what is Testing in DevOps. Finally we had lovely workshop with the participants trying to find out different ways to think about quality and testing in different parts of the DevOps infinity loop.
