A Reference Architecture to Enable Visibility and Traceability across the Ent...CollabNet
Software development should not be a “black box” to the business, customers or other developers. Instead collaboration across stakeholders should be the norm--business, development and operations teams. Forrester recently reported that 13% of organizations doing Agile link “upstream” agile planning with ‘“downstream” development.
As a result, executives continue to have only limited or no visibility beyond the initial planning stage of what is in a particular release. It’s not their fault, because today’s tools focus on upfront planning and don’t give you visibility into what’s happening in development. Often times that visibility is too late resulting in software that gets delivered and does not meet the customer’s needs.
Join CollabNet’s most experienced senior solution architects as they explain how you can you gain real time visibility into all stages of the development process—from ideation into production through deployment. Imagine what can your teams get done if all stakeholders are able to collaborate together and view real time feeds into all stages of the delivery pipelines within a single easy-to-use system.
Who Should attend:
Any executive or manager interested in learning how to get traceability and visibility across the enterprise-- particularly, into the build and release management functions of their application lifecycle.
What will be covered:
An enterprise-scalable reference architecture for CI, CD, and DevOps
The importance of build management, release management and application release automation integration

Are processes masquerading as projects hurting your businessBen Bradley
Not long ago, a significant amount of the work done within companies was simpler and a higher percentage of it tended to be fairly repetitive. Today, work featuring unstructured decision-making—knowledge work—accounts for 25% to 50% of all work, and this percentage is growing. The challenge is that while the work needed today has changed fairly radically, technology solutions had not adapted to the new environment—business process management (BPM) and project management solutions are really good at managing a predictable, repetitive world, but these solutions are not well-suited to business scenarios containing a lot of uncertainty and requiring unstructured decision-making in order to reach positive outcomes.

Levelwise PageRank with Loop-Based Dead End Handling Strategy : SHORT REPORT ...Subhajit Sahu
Abstract — Levelwise PageRank is an alternative method of PageRank computation which decomposes the input graph into a directed acyclic block-graph of strongly connected components, and processes them in topological order, one level at a time. This enables calculation for ranks in a distributed fashion without per-iteration communication, unlike the standard method where all vertices are processed in each iteration. It however comes with a precondition of the absence of dead ends in the input graph. Here, the native non-distributed performance of Levelwise PageRank was compared against Monolithic PageRank on a CPU as well as a GPU. To ensure a fair comparison, Monolithic PageRank was also performed on a graph where vertices were split by components. Results indicate that Levelwise PageRank is about as fast as Monolithic PageRank on the CPU, but quite a bit slower on the GPU. Slowdown on the GPU is likely caused by a large submission of small workloads, and expected to be non-issue when the computation is performed on massive graphs.

● OEM sales model
● Large product catalog for the company
size (350k SKUs)
● 60 employees, 20M annual revenue, 3
global locations
- One Website
- Limited but known product lines
- Limited resources (still the case)
- Controlled growth
One application to rule them all
(the monolith)
4. Where we landed.
Bio-Techne:
● 5 brands
● ~1000 employees
● ~15 locations globally
● ~600K SKUs
● ~350M annual revenue
We have a significantly larger
company that acquired us for
our product catalog and IT skills.
5. Where we also landed...
1. No clear digital path when
we were acquired
2. About 10 employees in all of
IT
6. We have the technology, the team and the vision….
PLUS: A really cool monolith
that does what it does for
one brand and set of
products really well.

7. How are we really going to survive?
Current Solr Landscape
• Curl-ing flat files
• Custom Product Information Management application
• Static product pages
• Complicated proxy architecture
• Single Instance for Dev, Stage and Prod (Doin’ it Live!)
The Plan
• Build product pages from Solr
• CI deployments and actual testing
• Consolidate schema’s
• Atomic updates
➔ Message based architecture
8. Partnered with SearchStax because of their:
• Robust platform
• A Flexible, Scalable, and Reliable PaaS
• SLA
• Cost effective
• Ease of access, manageability, logistics and monitoring with notifications
Need a Solr Platform for a Growing Team

Jenkins
● Script Jenkins to create replica base images of the production and staging sites including
databases and code branches
● These are then run internally set to collections with Schema changes
● Once QA and UAT pass, these changes are shipped to Solr and collections reloaded.
CI/CD Process

Visual Studio Online – Currently under development
● Visual Studio Online – Currently under development
● Message based publishing and subscribing
● On premise databases publish out changes to products to an Azure queue
● Application running within an Azure Kubernetes Service subscribes to the Azure queue
and then maps an updates the document in the appropriate collection
● Allows the integration of product information updates in real time to Solr
CI/CD Process

Development and Staging Sites
● Gives the end user (Marketing) the ability to select fields and apply boosts to test
changes with the site search
● Allows segregation of development between web and search ensuring that changes
can or cannot proceed
● Each site has a set of copyField’s that are specific to how they would like to be searched
CI/CD Process
15. Schema Consolidation
Initially started with one Solr Schema for NovusBio
After acquisition additional custom Solr Schemas were created:
• Difficult to manage
• Who uses which fields?
• What do these each mean?
• More confusing for end users to test and change boost’s!
• Confusion between brands and what fields mean what for developers!
Our new plan is to Merge all Solr Schema’s
• Field Types – created specific field types for each entity to use for search
• Fields – created specific fields for each entity to search with, agreed upon
all entity in regards to what standard fields meant
• Result of this consolidation is yielding more flexible search fields and a
standardization for onboarding!

17. Schema Consolidation
Front End for each Brand:
• Highly customizable and templated
• Standardized data points
• Highly data driven with less confusion for development
• Creates collaboration for brand marketing
• Enables the end user to be confident
Back End:
• Standardized data points
• Flexibility to share field types and fields between brands
• Single point of reference for all sites
• Live updates to Solr from individual source systems
20. Where we are now.
● 12 Brands currently
● 1900+ employees
● 22 locations globally
● 1.5M distinct SKUs
● Around 700M in annual
revenue
● 60+ employees in the IT
department
There is a clear path forward.
