Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling Now Supports Predictive Scaling with Custom MetricsDhaval Soni
With Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling’s new predictive scaling policy, you can now use custom metrics to predict the EC2 instance capacity needed by an Auto Scaling group. Predictive scaling proactively increases the capacity of an Auto Scaling group to meet predicted demand. For workloads that experience recurring, steep demand changes, predictive scaling can help improve your application’s responsiveness without having to overprovision capacity, resulting in lower EC2 costs. Custom metrics are useful when the predefined metrics (CPU Utilization, Network I/O, and ALB Request Count) are not sufficient to capture the load on your application. Previously, you could only use custom metrics with step scaling and target tracking, but you can now use them with predictive scaling as well.
If you have hands-on experience in developing full-stack web and mobile applications, you are most certainly aware of what goes behind the process and how time-consuming it might get. Now, what if you were introduced to a faster approach that lets you utilize your time and resources more effectively? Here's something you don't want to miss!

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
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.

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).

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.

4. WHAT IS A LOAD BALANCER?
• A load balancer distributes workloads across multiple compute resources,
such as virtual servers.
• Using a load balancer increases the availability and fault tolerance of your
applications.
• You can add and remove compute resources from your load balancer as
your needs change, without disrupting the overall flow of requests to your
applications.
• You can configure health checks, which monitor the health of the compute
resources, so that the load balancer sends requests only to the healthy
ones.
Elastic Load Balancing
5. ANNOUNCEMENT
• Application Load Balancers and Network Load Balancers now support
end-to-end connectivity with Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6).
• Clients can now connect to application and network load balancers and
access backend applications over IPv6.
6. HOW WILL IT HELP YOU?
• With this launch, you can set your load balancer to “dual stack” mode,
allowing it to accept both IPv4 or IPv6 client connections. While dual
stack mode on internet-facing load balancers has been available, this
launch extends support for internal load balancers by adding protections
to help prevent unintended internet access via IPv6 through an internet
gateway.
• Additionally, application and network load balancers now support load
balancing to targets addressed by IPv6. With this launch, you can now
create IPv6 target groups, allowing IPv4 and IPv6 clients to connect to
targets in IPv6/dual-stack subnets.
