The document discusses the concept of "ShadowOps", which refers to when business units circumvent central IT organizations to rapidly deploy new capabilities using public cloud infrastructure. This can occur when central IT is slow to respond to business needs. The document outlines some examples of ShadowOps activities and notes potential risks. It argues that central IT needs to adopt DevOps techniques to streamline delivery processes and provide reusable services in order to compete with ShadowOps approaches and better support business innovation.

Cloud Native Patterns with Bluemix Developer ConsoleMatthew Perrins
This presentation talks about Cloud Native Application patterns Mobile, Web, BFF (Backend for Frontend) and Microservices. It will walk through the patterns and show how they can be used to deliver public cloud solutions with IBM Cloud, using Bluemix Developer Console
Accelerating Innovation with Hybrid CloudJeff Jakubiak
Cloud can be an efficient and cost effective tool in delivering innovation to the marketplace; however, a hybrid approach to cloud adoption is a necessity for the enterprise.
A developer can now build out Cloud Native applications using our patterns-first approach. You simply select the type of building block you’d like to create followed by which services you’d like to incorporate into your application (i.e., Cloudant database, WatsonConversation, Push Notifications).
Enabling Innovators for the Era of the Social Enterprise: presented to Triple Helix 9 conference at Stanford University to address the opportunities for expanding the Silicon Valley model to emerging economies
Cloud computing practices are growing within the Enterprise. Digital business strategies are driving activity within the cloud. Organizations are choosing "cloud-first" strategies. Learn how to break down the barriers to cloud adoption.
We are drowning in complexity—can we do better?Jonas Bonér
Today’s vast cloud-native infrastructure ecosystem is excellent. Unfortunately, it has grown very complex and hard to navigate. What tools to use for what job? How to compose them into a single coherent system? How to ensure the application’s guarantees and SLAs holistically? It can easily be overwhelming, and a lot falls on the Ops/SRE team that needs to manage it all.
Serverless to the rescue? Yes and no. It does provide a fantastic promise of a better DX for developers. But it has fallen short of this promise, stopped in its tracks halfway there.
Can we do better? Definitely. What we need is a new category of managed platforms that do full “vertical integration” of all infrastructure; providing a simple and high-level programming model allows the developer to focus on just three things: API definition, domain data, and business logic—i.e., working on direct business value. The rest, all of the rest, should be outsourced to the platform itself. Let me show you what I mean.
The ability to deliver software is no longer a differentiator. In fact, it is a basic requirement for survival. Companies that embrace cloud native patterns of software delivery will survive; companies that don’t - will not.
In this webinar, we will:
- Look at the common patterns that distinguish cloud native companies and the architectures that they employ.
- Discover that an opinionated platform, one that stretches from the infrastructure all the way to the application framework, rather than ad-hoc automation, is an essential component to an enterprise's cloud native journey.
- Show that the combination of Pivotal Cloud Foundry and Spring is the complete cloud native platform.

Digital Transformation, Innovation, and Industry Transformer through Hybrid Cloud. IBM Scenarios of Hybrid Cloud and Roadmap .An example of how Enterprise can get into Hybrid Cloud through simple Dev/Test Private Cloud as the start.
Business critical systems—off-the-shelf systems, custom-built applications, or software-as-a-service—consist of many logical end points. However, they are all common in exposing a set of inputs and a set of outputs. They also produce and consume data of different forms, custom binary or a standard format like XML, EDI, JSON, and so on. This data needs to follow a particular protocol—TCP/IP, HTTP, or FTP—in order to ensure seamless communication between different end points.
Integration is a buzzword we hear all the time, but what does it really mean? Essentially, integration is the act of allowing these different end points to work together in meaningful ways to accomplish business value. IBM IIB version 10 provides a significant leap forward from version 9 and provides key enhancements in terms of experience as well as capabilities. Join us to see the difference and learn how it may serve you in your Digital Transformation journey.

Cloud-enabled Development: Putting the Agile into the Infrastructurebrian.white
As software development teams seek greater efficiency and effectiveness, they often find that they are held back by old IT architecture for development and test. They wrestle with low-powered servers, difficult-to-scale static environments, and a slow IT provisioning and change processes. Today, software leaders have radically changed the way they build, test, and deploy software—almost exclusively using cloud computing to power their development processes. This presentation provides specifics on which application workloads are ideal for the cloud model and how the use of cloud computing supports Agile development practices.

“12 Factor” is a software methodology for building scalable microservice applications that provides best practices designed to enable applications to be built with portability, resilience, and scalability when deployed to the web. In this talk we provide an overview of the 12 Factor methodology and describe how the core constructs provided by Kubernetes can be leveraged to support the 12 factors for scalable web apps. In this talk we will provide live demonstrations of how Kubernetes can support 12 Factor for not only newer cloud native applications, but also for legacy enterprise middleware applications that include stateful and transactional workloads.
How IBM is helping developers win the race to innovate with next-gen cloud se...Michael Elder
In the race to transform, enterprises employ cloud to deliver innovation and stay ahead of the competition. New services are built natively on cloud, but what about the 80% of enterprise applications that have not yet moved to the cloud.
In this session, we'll answer these questions: How do I integrate next-gen technology like Blockchain, Watson IoT, and Data &AI into my new applications? How do I make multicloud an advantage instead of adding new complexity?
Portable Apps across IBM Kubernetes Service and IBM Cloud Private (#Think2019...Michael Elder
Building apps to run in your local Kubernetes or managed Kubernetes environment is easy and straightforward. A common packaging mechanism based on container images and open source Helm to distribute your Kubernetes apps can be produced to your continuous delivery pipeline. These apps can then be deployed wherever needed. Deploying in your datacenter? Great! You can run Kubernetes with IBM Cloud Private anywhere! Want Kubernetes but don’t want to manage it yourself? Great! You can consume Kubernetes-as-a-Service with IBM Cloud Kubernetes Service! In this talk, we’ll demonstrate how to leverage each of these offerings to build and run apps. We’ll also cover some of the nuances of running in a hybrid cloud operating model.
Creating Production-Ready, Secure and Scalable Applications in IBM Cloud Priv...Michael Elder
What does it really take to make sure your application is production-ready? With new privacy regulations being added, many aspects need to be taken into account when deciding when to deliver your final product to the public. Can your application handle multiple users with different levels of access? Can you extend your application to use existing authentication and authorization platforms? Have you invested in using Mutual TLS authentication for communication between components? How do you manage the certificates and passwords used within your application? Does it connect to the database securely? This talk will cover all aspects from start to finish on how to deliver production-ready code.
Client Deployment of IBM Cloud Private (IBM #Think2019 #5964)Michael Elder
As you plan for the adoption of Kubernetes in your datacenter, you’ll face several common questions. How much capacity will your clusters need? How should you manage the network security of the cluster? How do you expose services on the cluster to your existing network fabric? What are the tradeoffs to consider between different storage providers? What should you do for backup and disaster recovery scenarios? In this session, we’ll review several examples of client deployment architectures that will help you get started on your journey to a hybrid, multicloud architecture for your apps!
An architect’s guide to leveraging your incumbencyMichael Elder
O'Reilly Software Architecture Conference 2018 (London)
Continuous delivery for 12-factor Microservices works because it’s by design. When you can architect a solution for continuous delivery, you control all the angles but what do you do when you don’t have that luxury? This session will highlight how modernizing existing IT infrastructure with containers enables you to manage change through continuous delivery and reduce ongoing operational costs.
Abstract
While the industry has promoted a dramatic trend to build new, improved styles of architecture; there remains a gap in how to address the ongoing and continuous improvement and operation of existing enterprise IT systems alongside these new 12-factor apps.
In this session, we will review why 12-factor apps are a natural fit for Kubernetes by design. We will demonstrate how Kubernetes addresses virtually all of the 12 factors for scalable web apps. Then we will take a step back and consider the important question: how well will stateful and transactional workloads that were not designed for 12-factor be able to run within Kubernetes?
Even with purist gaps from 12-factor for traditional enterprise workloads, there are real benefits to velocity and cost management to move stateful and transactional workloads to containers. With a container based orchestrator like Kubernetes, all workload types can take advantage of automated DevOps release pipelines, provide rich feedback loops with canary testing, leverage better automated failure recovery in production, and provide easier visibility into the operational health of services running within Kubernetes. Leveraging a standard platform for a blend of architectural types enables an enterprise to standardize operational practices for across the board. The end result might be the right path for your enterprise to drive your digital transformation.

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!
Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
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).

Time Magazine cites lateness to the web as a key factor in Borders demise . http://business.time.com/2011/07/19/5-reasons-borders-went-out-of-business-and-what-will-take-its-place/ http://www.wikinvest.com/stock/Borders_Group_(BGP)/Data/Revenue/2002 http://www.insidefacebook.com/2012/08/06/facebook-to-push-new-code-twice-a-day-on-web-update-android-every-4-6-weeks/
Talk about the downside of trying to optimize for only one of these extremes. E.g. you can bludgeon dev with a bunch of processes and checklists to ensure nothing bad ever happens but it could cause you to miss opportunities. Likewise if you go too fast without considering process, you could open security vulnerabilities, experience severe outages, etc. Tie back to previous slide (emerging importance of cloud) and acknowledgign the “Public Cloud End Around” problem where dev teams use their corporate card to deploy to the public cloud, stepping around the operations organization.
Another cultural and process gap is that operational orgs and development orgs have very different notions of what it means to be “done, with quality”. Some of these different concerns are described in the text under the ops and dev people above.
