AWS CloudFormation Automation, TrafficScript, and Serverless architecture wit...PolarSeven Pty Ltd
Chris Kawchuck has 20 years experience in the Telecom and Service provider industry. He will be demonstrating how easy it is to spin up a Brocade vADC in AWS; enabling serverless architectures using S3 buckets, and accomplish real-time traffic rewrites to get you out of sticky situations.
Learn about:
1. Load balancing and scaling options available on AWS
2. Automating the Brocade vADC spin up using Cloudformation Templates
3. Enabling use of "Serverless" web pages in AWS 4.Taking care of tricky situations using TrafficScript
Implementing any 3rd party Load Balancer from the Amazon AWS Marketplace can be a daunting task. Not only does one have to learn the vendor's specific interface, you also need to perform quite a few administrative tasks to setup front end IPs, back end pools, clustering, and so on.
Brocade has published a CloudFormation Template (CFT) which takes all the hard work out of setting it up and operating. Using DevOps tools and open source scripts, we not only automate the deployment of the Brocade vADC within AWS, but all the configuration you need to administer, cluster, and provision your Load Balancers; including public IPs and your back-end server pools.
We would like you to try it, and take advantage of the powerful feature of the Brocade vADC.

FaaS or not to FaaS. Visible and invisible benefits of the Serverless paradig...Vadym Kazulkin
When we talk about prices, we often only talk about Lambda costs. In our applications, however, we rarely use only Lambda. Usually we have other building blocks like API Gateway, data sources like SNS, SQS or Kinesis. We also store our data either in S3 or in serverless databases like DynamoDB or recently in Aurora Serverless. All of these AWS services have their own pricing models to look out for. In this talk, we will draw a complete picture of the total cost of ownership in serverless applications and present a decision-making list for determining if and whether to rely on serverless paradigm in your project. In doing so, we look at the cost aspects as well as other aspects such as understanding application lifecycle, software architecture, platform limitations, organizational knowledge and plattform and tooling maturity. We will also discuss current challenges adopting serverless such as lack of high latency ephemeral storage, unsufficient network performance and missing security features.
What are the various testing facilities that we offer to our clients during Cloud migration or Adoption. The three types of testing discussed here are Load testing, Availability testing & Vulnerability or Security Testing. Description of these types of testing along with detailed solution Architectural diagrams using Amazon Web Services Elements have been spoken about. Also a list of what major activities are present in each type of testing is also included in this presentation.

Writing less code with Serverless on AWS at OOP 2022Vadym Kazulkin
The purpose of Serverless is to focus on writing the code that delivers business value and offload undifferentiated heavy lifting to the Cloud providers or SaaS vendors of your choice. Today’s code quickly becomes tomorrow’s technical debt even if you meet the perfect decision. The less you own, the better it is from the maintainability point of view. In this talk I will go through examples of the various Serverless architectures on AWS where you glue together different Serverless managed services relying mostly on configuration, significantly reducing the amount of the code written to perform the task. Own less, build more!
DevOps on AWS: Deep Dive on Continuous Delivery and the AWS Developer ToolsAmazon Web Services
Today’s cutting-edge companies have software release cycles measured in days instead of months. This agility is enabled by the DevOps practice of continuous delivery, which automates building, testing, and deploying all code changes. This automation helps you catch bugs sooner and accelerates developer productivity. In this session, we’ll share the processes that Amazon’s engineers use to practice DevOps and discuss how you can bring these processes to your company by using a new set of AWS tools (AWS CodePipeline and AWS CodeDeploy). These services were inspired by Amazon's own internal developer tools and DevOps culture.
Much has been said about DevOps culture, this webinar talks about exactly what it means to exercise a DevOps methodology inside your organization and takes a more detailed look at Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment – two of the elements of a successful DevOps framework. With AWS’s API driven infrastructure, running a lean platform becomes possible and the ability to treat ‘Infrastructure as Code’.
Reasons to attend:
Learn how to set up and experience the benefits of 'Continuous Integration' and 'Continuous Deployment' for your Development Environment.
Learn about DevOps best practices and the agility that the AWS Cloud can bring your business.
Learn how business have successfully implemented DevOps methodologies.
vCloud Automation Center and Pivotal Cloud Foundry – Better PaaS Solution (VM...VMware Tanzu
David Benedict - Member of Technical Staff, VMware
Cornelia Davis - Platform Engineer, Cloud Foundry, Pivotal
Vipul Shah - Director of Product Management, VMware
vCloud Automation Center provides powerful capabilities for policy-based orchestration of complex infrastructure and application deployments. A Platform as a Service (PaaS) such as Pivotal CF, built on the open-source Cloud Foundry, presents a set of abstractions and capabilities that focus on the application implementation and the run-time services it will leverage.
The value of a PaaS installation is equally driven by the set of application-centric capabilities provided, such as performance monitoring or logging, and by the set of services that can easily be integrated into an application; exposing the offerings in the vCloud Automation Center services catalog for leverage by apps deployed into Pivotal CF allows an enterprise faster time to value. And a vCloud Automation Center user can model system deployments, automating infrastructure provisioning and software deployments; this modeling is equally valuable even when the targets of the orchestrations are the PaaS abstractions of applications and services.
These products are very complementary and we’ll show you how. Understand how the combined vCloud Automation Center / Pivotal CF solutions provide the basis for a comprehensive PaaS solution. See a demo of and roadmap for the integrated solution. Learn how to use vCloud Automation Center to model applications for deployment into Pivotal CF and how to draw vCloud Automation Center services into Pivotal CF.
After a brief overview of both products, we will describe the capabilities and derived value of the joint solution that will have early access availability at the time of the conference.

Adopting PCF At An Automobile ManufacturerVMware Tanzu
SpringOne Platform 2017
Thomas Seibert, Mercedes-Benz.io GmbH; Gregor Zurowski, Independent Consultant
"The main idea for this talk is to show the audience how we implemented a microservice architecture based on Pivotal Cloud Foundry (PCF) in a corporate environment by avoiding monolithic applications, allowing shorter release cycles and enabling horizontal scalability with a multitude of teams. This case study covers project inception, conception, implementation and going into production. The goal is to share our experiences, ideas and gotchas on our path to digital transformation with PCF.
We start off by briefly describing our initial design ideas of moving away from a heavyweight application model to lightweight, flexible and scalable applications.
In the main part of the presentation we focus on the design and architecture of our PCF environment and our microservice applications. In this part, we discuss the following topics:
How we set up our PCF foundations.
How we enabled our teams and organized business services into PCF orgs and spaces.
Our development stack that includes Spring Boot, Spring Cloud, and Spring Cloud Services.
The need for shared services across space and org boundaries.
Our application versioning concept and how we implemented it.
The use of an API gateway component and how we implemented it.
Patterns for backend integration.
Zero downtime deployments.
In the last part, we speak about issues we experienced, lessons we learned, plans for improvement, as well as opportunities and enhancements for the platform."
Deploying to and Configuring WebSphere Application Server with UrbanCode DeployClaudia Ring
Integrating middleware configuration into your application delivery lifecycle can be difficult and usually requires painful manual processes and constant surveillance.
But, there is hope! IBM UrbanCode Deploy has a new and improved middleware configuration plugin for WebSphere Application Server that provides automated updates to WebSphere as part of the application deployment process. Instead of wrestling with manual changes, join us in this session to learn how this plugin can help you update, manage and configure multiple WebSphere instances automatically and automate application deployments on top every time.
Modernizing Testing as Apps Re-ArchitectDevOps.com
Applications are moving to cloud and containers to boost reliability and speed delivery to production. However, if we use the same old approaches to testing, we'll fail to achieve the benefits of cloud. But what do we really need to change? We know we need to automate tests, but how do we keep our automation assets from becoming obsolete? Automatically provisioning test environments seems close, but some parts of our applications are hard to move to cloud.
What is Serverless Computing?
From its Introduction, Architecture, Characteristics, Commercial Platform, Benefits and Drawbacks, Use Cases and Workloads, to its API Composition.
Achieving Hyper-Productivity through the Use of Microservices and PCFGregor Zurowski
We demonstrate how Mercedes-Benz.io has achieved to go from idea to production in no time. Through the evolution of an effective and developer oriented application generation framework, utilization of a highly automated tool chain, organizational improvements and the infrastructure provided by PCF they will describe how their delivery performance has increased on many dimensions and how their ecosystem allows for scaling to a multitude of teams.

Cloud-native Data: Every Microservice Needs a Cachecornelia davis
Presented at the Pivotal Toronto Users Group, March 2017
Cloud-native applications form the foundation for modern, cloud-scale digital solutions, and the patterns and practices for cloud-native at the app tier are becoming widely understood – statelessness, service discovery, circuit breakers and more. But little has changed in the data tier. Our modern apps are often connected to monolithic shared databases that have monolithic practices wrapped around them. As a result, the autonomy promised by moving to a microservices application architecture is compromised.
With lessons from the application tier to guide us, the industry is now figuring out what the cloud-native architectural patterns are at the data tier. Join us to explore some of these with Cornelia Davis, a five year Cloud Foundry veteran who is now focused on cloud-native data. As it happens, every microservice needs a cache and this evening will drill deep on that topic. She’ll cover a variety of caching patterns and use cases, and demonstrate how their use helps preserve the autonomy that is driving agile software delivery practices today.

The world is producing an ever increasing volume, velocity, and variety of big data. Consumers and businesses are demanding up-to-the-second (or even millisecond) analytics on their fast-moving data, in addition to classic batch processing. AWS delivers many technologies for solving big data problems. But what services should you use, why, when, and how? In this session, we simplify big data processing as a data bus comprising various stages: ingest, store, process, and visualize. Next, we discuss how to choose the right technology in each stage based on criteria such as data structure, query latency, cost, request rate, item size, data volume, durability, and so on. Finally, we provide reference architecture, design patterns, and best practices for assembling these technologies to solve your big data problems at the right cost.

Using Lean Thinking to identify and address Delivery Pipeline bottlenecksSanjeev Sharma
Using Lean Thinking to identify and address Delivery Pipeline bottlenecks: This session explores 'Lean Thinking' techniques to help identify 'bottlenecks' in your delivery pipeline that can be addressed by adopting DevOps
Join ClearScale and AWS to learn how the San Jose Water Company worked with ClearScale to leverage Docker and the latest AWS DevOps tools including Amazon ECS, Amazon EC2 Container Registry (ECR) and AWS CodePipeline, to deliver new app features faster, with lower overhead. Gaining a competitive edge in the modern business landscape often depends on delivering apps with small, quick changes that create faster time-to-market, with focused value for the end customer. Successful companies adopt a DevOps model that automates continuous app delivery and may use a software containerization platform, both to accelerate releases and reduce risk. ClearScale is an AWS DevOps Premier Consulting Partner that helps decrease your time to market, governance and compliance risks, and lower your operational costs.

Pivotal korea transformation_strategy_seminar_enterprise_dev_ops_20160630_v1.0minseok kim
devops has been popular in IT ever since emerging cloud technology. to make IT more agile, we need to keep setup goal and measure performance with adopting new cloud native tools.
IT organisations are measured based on how they mitigate risk and ensure changes adhere to compliance policies. High-performing organisations pull Information Security earlier into the development process by automating compliance tests.
Becoming a high-performing, risk averse organisation is about two things:
• How frequently (and automatically & trivially) you can run compliance assessments;
• and once you discover vulnerabilities, how quickly you can then remediate them.
Are you ready to bridge the gap between DevOps & InfoSec?
The journey to Continuous Automation - Chef AutomateKangaroot
Chef had driven the the Devops revolution, and its platform, Chef platfomr, is the leader in Continuous Automation. Chef visited the Kangaroot offices to show how you can achieve speed, scale and consistency by automating your infrastructure with Chef!

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
