Ansiblefest 2018 Network automation journey at robloxDamien Garros
In December 2017, Roblox’s network was managed in a traditional way without automation.
To sustained its growth, the team had to deploy 2 datacenters, a global network and multiple point of presence around the world in few months, the only solution to be able to achieve that was to automate everything.
6 months later, the team has made tremendous progress and many aspects of the network lifecycle has been automated from the routers, switches to the load balancers.
Synopsis
This talk is a retrospective of Roblox’s journey into Network automation:
How we got started and how we automated an existing network.
How we organized the project around Github and an DCIM/IPAM solution (netbox),
How Docker helped us to package Ansible and create a consistent environment.
How we managed many roles and variations of our design in single project
How we have automated the provisioning of our F5 Load Balancers.
For each point, we’ll cover what was successful, what was more challenging and what limitations we had to deal with.
This document discusses the classification of enzymes into six major types (oxidoreductases, transferases, hydrolases, lyases, isomerases, ligases) and provides examples of each type. It also covers enzyme kinetics concepts such as Michaelis-Menten kinetics, Km values, and how substrate concentration affects reaction rate. Finally, it lists some common enzymes that are clinically relevant markers for specific diseases or conditions, such as liver diseases, myocardial infarction, muscle diseases, bone diseases, and prostate cancer.
The document discusses lipid metabolism, specifically focusing on phospholipids, sphingolipids, and glycolipids. It provides details on:
1) The biosynthesis of major phospholipids like phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylserine, and phosphatidylinositol which occurs on the endoplasmic reticulum membrane.
2) The structures and functions of complex sphingolipids like sphingomyelin, cerebrosides, and gangliosides which are components of cell membranes and play roles in cell signaling.
3) The degradation of glycerophospholipids and sphingolipids within lysosomes by phospholipases and glycosidases. Inherited defects in
This document discusses enzymes and enzyme kinetics. It defines enzymes as biological catalysts that accelerate biochemical reactions. Enzymes have three main properties - catalytic power, specificity, and regulation. The document describes enzyme classification systems, cofactors, factors that affect enzyme activity like temperature and pH, enzyme inhibition, and models of enzyme action including lock-and-key and induced fit. It also discusses enzyme kinetics concepts such as Michaelis-Menten kinetics, activation energy, and Gibbs free energy.
Nucleotides are the building blocks of nucleic acids DNA and RNA. They consist of a nitrogenous base, a pentose sugar, and one or more phosphate groups. Nucleotides are synthesized through de novo and salvage pathways and provide energy in the form of ATP. Defects in nucleotide metabolism can cause diseases like Lesch-Nyhan syndrome and gout. Nucleotide analogs are used as anticancer agents and target nucleotide metabolic pathways.
The electron transport chain (ETC) transfers electrons from NADH and FADH2 to oxygen. This process uses the energy from electron transfers to drive the synthesis of ATP. The ETC consists of four complexes located in the mitochondrial inner membrane. Complexes I, III, and IV use iron-sulfur centers and cytochromes to sequentially pass electrons from one complex to the next. As electrons are passed through the complexes, protons are pumped from the mitochondrial matrix to the intermembrane space, building an electrochemical gradient used by ATP synthase to generate ATP from ADP. Various inhibitors can block electron transfer at different complexes, preventing ATP production.

To do this, I built a scenario to see if I could get some of my devices to communicate with the IBM IoT Foundation and visualized the sensor data in a graph using a local application on my Notebook. 1st couple of slides show how to connect nest than i wend on to connect my Android Phone and Google Glass.
This document provides an overview of nucleotide biosynthesis. It discusses that nucleotides are composed of nitrogenous bases, pentose sugars, and phosphate groups, and are the building blocks of nucleic acids. There are two pathways for nucleotide biosynthesis - de novo synthesis which uses metabolic precursors to build nucleotides from scratch, and salvage pathways which recycle bases and nucleosides from nucleic acid breakdown. Key steps in purine and pyrimidine synthesis are described. Nucleotides have important biological functions as components of nucleic acids, energy carriers, and signaling molecules.
Metabolism of Purine & Pyrimidine nucleotideEneutron
This document summarizes the biosynthesis pathways of purine and pyrimidine nucleotides. It discusses:
1) Purine biosynthesis occurs in two phases - first the synthesis of aminoimidazole ribosyl-5-phosphate (VII) from ribose 5-phosphate, then the synthesis of inosine monophosphate (IMP, XII) from aminoimidazole ribosyl-5-phosphate.
2) Pyrimidine biosynthesis differs in that the pyrimidine ring is first synthesized, followed by attachment to ribose phosphate. It begins with carbamoyl phosphate and involves intermediates like orotic acid and orotidylate before forming uridine monophosph
Enzymes regulate chemical pathways in cells and lower the activation energy of reactions, increasing reaction rates. Enzymes have an active site that binds to substrates, catalyzing the reaction to form products. Factors like pH, temperature, and inhibitors can impact an enzyme's activity by changing its shape. Feedback inhibition regulates metabolic pathways by inhibiting enzymes when product concentrations are high.
This document discusses the chemistry and functions of carbohydrates. It defines carbohydrates as polyhydroxy aldehydes or ketones and classifies them into monosaccharides, oligosaccharides, and polysaccharides. Monosaccharides include glucose, fructose, and galactose. The document discusses isomerism, mutarotation, epimers, and the reactions of monosaccharides. It describes the roles of carbohydrates as an energy source, precursor for other biomolecules, and structural component in cells. Key monosaccharides like glucose, fructose, and galactose and their importance are highlighted.
The pentose phosphate pathway is a metabolic pathway parallel to glycolysis that generates NADPH and pentoses. It occurs mainly in the cytoplasm of liver and red blood cells. Glucose-6-phosphate enters the pathway and undergoes oxidative and non-oxidative reactions. The oxidative reactions produce NADPH, while the non-oxidative reactions produce pentoses and glycolytic intermediates. The overall reaction generates NADPH, CO2, and pentoses from glucose, with NADPH used for lipid and nucleotide biosynthesis and antioxidant defenses.
Apache Bigtop and ARM64 / AArch64 - Empowering Big Data EverywhereGanesh Raju
Apache Bigtop packages the Hadoop ecosystem into RPM and DEB packages. It provides a foundation for commercial Hadoop distributions and services. Bigtop features include a build toolchain, package framework, Puppet deployment scripts, and integration test framework. The next release of Bigtop 1.4 is upcoming in early April 2019, adding AArch64 support, improved testing, and package version updates. Future work includes focusing on core big data components like Spark and Flink, adding Kubernetes and cloud support, and expanding integrations.
Overview of VoIP (Voice over IP) and FoIP (Fax over IP) technologies like Session Initiation Protocol and H.323.
Even though voice over IP (VoIP) was hailed as a technological innovation, the idea to transport real-time traffic over TCP/IP networks was not new back in the 1990s when VoIP started being deployed in networks. Chapter 2.5 of the venerable RFC793 (TCP) shows both data oriented application traffic as well as voice being transported over IP based networks.
Nevertheless, VoIP puts high demands on signal and protocol processing capabilities so it became possible at reasonable costs only in the 1990s.
VoIP can be roughly split into two main functions. Signaling protocols like SIP (Session Initiation Protocol), H.323 and MGCP/H.248 are used to establish a conference session and the data path for transporting real-time voice data packets. SIP has largely supplanted H.323 in recent years to its simpler structure and packet sequences. MGCP and H.248 are mostly used in carrier backbone networks.
Protocols like RTP (Real Time Protocol) transport voice packets and provide the necessary information for receivers to equalize packet flow variations to provide a smooth playback of the original voice signal.
Voice codecs are one of the core functions of the data path. Voice compression reduces the bandwidth required to transport voice over an IP based network. Compression may be less of a concern in local area networks with gigabit speeds, on slower links like 3G (UMTS, LTE) it still makes a lot of sense.
The algorithms used in different codecs make use of various characteristics of the characteristics of human speech recognition. Redundant information is removed from the signals thus slightly reducing the quality, but greatly reducing the required bandwidth.
In VoIP networks, the echo problem is typically compounded by the increased delay incurred by packetization of voice signals. To counteract the echo problem, VoIP gear (hard phones, soft phones, gateways) include echo cancelers to remove echo signals from the transmit signal.
To transport facsimile over an IP based network, even more technology is needed. Facsimile protocols are very susceptible to delay and delay variation and thus need more compensation algorithms. Protocols like T.38 terminate facsimile protocols like T.30 (analog facsimile) and transport the fax images as digitized pictures over IP based networks.
Lipids are extracted from tissues using organic solvents. Adsorption chromatography separates lipids by polarity. Gas-liquid chromatography analyzes fatty acid methyl esters. Specific enzymatic hydrolysis and mass spectrometry are used to deduce lipid structures. Minor lipids serve as essential cofactors, while phospholipids generate signaling molecules. Membrane lipids include glycerophospholipids and sphingolipids.
SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) trunking connects a company's PBX to the existing telephone network infrastructure via the internet using VoIP. It was originally designed in 1996 and standardized in 2000. SIP trunking provides benefits like virtual phone numbers, reduced equipment needs, business continuity, and flexible trunk quantities. However, considerations must include system compatibility, additional bandwidth requirements, and challenges like supporting fax/modem traffic and 911 calls. The document discusses ideal environments for SIP trunking like companies with multiple locations, seasonal needs, or those seeking increased functionality. It also reviews cost components and provides an overview of SIP trunking.
The document introduces a group presenting on Voice over Internet Protocol (VOIP). The group members are listed as Akash Bista, Ankur Raj Karn, Arjun Khadka, and Saput Khadka. VOIP allows users to make phone calls over the internet rather than traditional phone lines. It compresses and converts voice signals to digital packets which are then transmitted over the internet. VOIP has advantages over traditional phone lines like lower costs, added features, and ability to transmit voice, data and video simultaneously.
This document discusses specialty oil products including lecithin, glycerol monostearate, and nutritional foods derived from oil seeds. It provides details on the properties and applications of lecithin and glycerol monostearate as emulsifiers. It also discusses how seed cakes and meals produced from oil seed processing can be used to fortify various foods while increasing their protein content. Examples include adding defatted sesame, flaxseed, peanut, and niger seed flours to baked goods and snacks. Sensory testing showed the highest levels of incorporation that maintained acceptability varied by product but was often between 5-50%.

Metabolism consists of catabolic and anabolic reactions that are organized into metabolic pathways. Catabolic pathways break down molecules to generate energy in the form of ATP via redox reactions. Anabolic pathways use this energy to synthesize larger molecules. Enzymes catalyze reactions and cells regulate pathways through feedback inhibition. Microbes metabolize carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids to generate energy and building blocks through both aerobic and anaerobic pathways. Metabolic tests can be used to distinguish between microbial species in the laboratory.
The document provides an overview of the changes to the CCIE Service Provider certification program, including updates to the written exam and lab exam blueprints.
Key changes include:
- The written exam now focuses more on dual stack IPv4/IPv6 technologies, troubleshooting methodologies, and widely deployed SP technologies.
- The lab exam now consists of five domains (previously four) and includes a new diagnostic module. It also uses a fully virtual environment and flexible timing in the troubleshooting module.
- Topic coverage was updated to remove outdated technologies like Frame Relay and ATM, and add new areas like segment routing, network functions virtualization, and Ethernet VPN.
Fatty acids are synthesized through a cyclic process in the cytosol. Acetyl-CoA is carboxylated to form malonyl-CoA by the enzyme acetyl-CoA carboxylase, initiating fatty acid synthesis. The fatty acid synthase complex then catalyzes the remaining steps - condensation of acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA, followed by reduction, dehydration, and reduction to form a fatty acid. This cycle of condensation, reduction, dehydration, and reduction is repeated until a 16-carbon palmitate is synthesized. NADPH provides reducing equivalents and the acyl carrier protein transports intermediates between active sites of the fatty acid synthase
Nucleotides are the monomers that make up nucleic acids and consist of three components: a pentose sugar (ribose or deoxyribose), a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base. Nucleotides can occur as mono-, di-, or triphosphates. Nucleosides are formed when a nitrogenous base attaches to a pentose sugar and lack the phosphate groups found in nucleotides. Nucleotides are precursors to nucleic acids DNA and RNA and serve important roles in energy storage, genetic inheritance, and acting as coenzymes or metabolic regulators.
This document discusses carbohydrate metabolism, specifically glycolysis. It begins by defining metabolism and its two main categories - catabolism and anabolism. It then describes the three main stages of carbohydrate catabolism. The bulk of the document provides a detailed explanation of the 10 steps of glycolysis, including enzymes, reactions, and regulation. It discusses the three fates of pyruvate and how other sugars can enter glycolysis. Finally, it summarizes glycogenolysis, the breakdown of glycogen into glucose-1-phosphate.
This document provides a CCNA command cheat sheet covering Cisco IOS commands for the CCNA exam. It includes sections summarizing commands for Cisco device configuration, interface configuration, routing protocols, privilege mode commands, and more. The cheat sheet covers both ICND exam parts 1 and 2 and is intended to help review the majority of commands found on the CCNA exam.
Carbohydrates- classification, identification and biosynthesisDr-Jitendra Patel
In this power point presentation viewers will be able to know about the basic idea about carbohydrates. How to classify the carbohydraters depends on the moeities present. The identification tests for carbohydrates also has been discussed.
There is not enough knowledge of programming languages to be good developers nowadays. It is important to understand the processes of continually improving the quality of the code and its performance. The ability to configure the development processes in a team more valuable than just writing code. To do this, you need to start using new tools or improve existing ones. We will go through all stages of development and find out what can be done better.

Delayed operations with queues for website performanceOSInet
Delaying work and deferring it to a queue handled asynchronously is one of the most efficient ways to improve full-page performance on complex page structures typical of content-oriented sites built with Drupal and other CMSes. These are the slides of the talk I have at DrupalCon Barcelona 2015 with Yuriy Gerasimov on this topic : learn about deferred submits, anticipated content refresh, and other tricks to speed up your sites.
A talk I gave at the Python Ireland meetup in June 2015 about rq (python-rq.org), a queuing library for the Python programming language that is backed by Redis.
Queick: A Simple Job Queue System for PythonRyota Suenaga
Ryota SUENAGA presented Queick, a simple job queue system he created for Python. Queick uses multi-threading to asynchronously execute jobs in the background. It was designed to be lightweight and use only Python's standard libraries. Key features include asynchronous and scheduled job execution, retries of failed jobs, and checking for network connectivity to re-enqueue jobs if the connection is lost. The architecture includes a job queue, worker processes to run jobs, and a separate process to monitor network status and retry downed jobs when the connection returns.
Face it: most Drupal intranets / extranets / back-offices feel sluggish, and that's because they do too much during the page cycle. Make them snappier by deferring work to a Queue worker.
The document discusses component interface design. It defines an interface and contrasts an API approach with a protocol approach. It provides examples of common bad interface practices like deceptive APIs and DSLs as APIs. It also discusses issues with distributed systems like idempotency keys and the coupling spectrum. The document emphasizes designing error messages for the caller and distinguishing component purpose from implementation.

It provides an overview of Ansible concepts like inventories, ad-hoc commands, modules, playbooks, roles, and templates. It also demonstrates writing a custom Python module for Ansible and using it in a playbook. Finally, it
This document provides tips and recommendations for various technologies and tools for web application development and operations. It discusses CakePHP, Lithium, Doctrine2, Python, Node.js, C++, Git, deployment processes, monitoring with Monit, analytics with Ducksboard and Google Analytics, caching with Varnish, hosting on AWS, parsing incoming email, real-time notifications with Redis and Socket.io, and full-text search with Sphinx. The document is intended to save lives with random tips from the experience of the author.
Node.js is a JavaScript runtime built on Chrome's V8 JavaScript engine. It allows JavaScript to be run on the server-side. It is used for building scalable network applications and real-time web applications. Some key things it allows are creating HTTP servers with just a few lines of code, building streaming and real-time services easily, and using a single programming language (JavaScript) for both server-side and client-side code.

An introduction to Netty. A powerful framework to develop networking applications.
This is suppose to be followed as hands on training, as the exercises on the slides imply, but can be also used an introduction guidance.
The advent of multicore CPUs have facilitated the enhancement of performance in many application domains. But it has shifted the burden of maximizing the usage of this hardware resource to the developers of operating systems and programming languages and ultimately the software engineers who have to develop the applications.
We first look at the concurrency primitives that modern operating systems provides us to work with, namely processes and threads. With Python, a common approach is to use threads which have shared memory. However this can be difficult to do well as it is easy to run into race conditions and other bugs. And Python threads, unlike OS threads, cannot run at the same time due to the infamous GIL, thus limiting us to only one core.
To utilize multiple cores in Python, an effective and better solution is to use multiple processes, each with their own memory space and provide inter-process communication using message passing. We will look at the multiprocessing module and how to use it for this purpose.
The document discusses choosing Rust over NodeJS for software development. It provides an overview of the speaker's background and experience with Rust. Some key differences between NodeJS and Rust mentioned are that Rust has no need for TypeScript or additional tooling, ships binaries, and allows for more performant code through compiler checks. The document also outlines steps for getting started with Rust, including recommended books and practice projects. Popular Rust libraries for web development are also listed.
This document provides an overview of Node.js, including common uses, a simple "Hello World" example server, how Node.js is an event-driven platform rather than just a web server, its single-threaded asynchronous architecture based on an event loop, prerequisites for programming in Node.js like understanding callbacks and closures, its module system and use of npm, challenges of asynchronous programming, common patterns and antipatterns, and difficulties of debugging and monitoring Node.js applications.

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).

Communications Mining Series - Zero to Hero - Session 1DianaGray10
This session provides introduction to UiPath Communication Mining, importance and platform overview. You will acquire a good understand of the phases in Communication Mining as we go over the platform with you. Topics covered:
• Communication Mining Overview
• Why is it important?
• How can it help today’s business and the benefits
• Phases in Communication Mining
• Demo on Platform overview
• Q/A
3. AboutMe
● Computer Engineering graduate from Pulchowk
Campus
● Runs a Python shop called Thoplo
● Does a lot of Python/Django
● Uses far too many exec statements
● ashishacharya.com
● Not a designer
4. WhyAsynchronousJobQueues?
● Some problems take too long to solve within a
single process
● Web applications need to provide an immediate
response
● Sending emails, processing images, making API
calls, etc. can take time
● So background processes and job queues
6. ChallengeswithCelery
● Lots of one-off configuration
● Difficult and time-consuming to set up
● Difficult to get right - lots of moving parts
that can fail
● Time consuming to monitor and maintain
● Needs right kind of storage mechanism with
the right kind of message queues
8. IntroducingRedisQueue
● RQ (Redis Queue) is a simple Python library
for queueing jobs and processing them in the
background with workers.
● Has a low barrier to entry.
● Has been created as a lightweight alternative
to existing queueing frameworks.
9. WhyRedisQueue?
● Can get it up and running in an afternoon
● No configuration file editing -- or very
little
● Don’t have to configure a message broker --
just uses Redis
10. AboutRedis
A server that lets you associate a data structure
with a key
● Written in C
● Bindings in most popular languages
● Easy to access from Python
● Used extensively for caching in web applications
● I know almost nothing about it.
17. Django-rq
● Enqueue jobs like so:
import django_rq
django_rq.enqueue(func, foo, bar=baz)
● Has a @job decorator like Celery’s @task
● Has management commands for rqworker and
rqscheduler
python manage.py rqworker high default low
python manage.py rqscheduler
20. ...andfinally
If you’re already using Redis for caching, you
can use the same connection information and
reap the benefits of optimization.
“Two birds, one Redis.” -- A.A
23. Tips
Break jobs down into atomic packages that don’t
do anything else.
At a point when this doesn’t work for you
anymore, it’s definitely time to upgrade to a
more powerful, more complex tool -- Celery.
(Or just hire someone to do it for you!)
