Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

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).

First, it’s useful to provide the context that the way we think about what Amazon.com is, the way we think about it at the highest levels of the Company, is that we have three macro and distinct businesses: our Consumer/Retail business, our Seller business, and our Developer business.
Amazon Web Services is a set of primitive building blocks to enable developers to build applications and, ultimately, businesses, on our battle-tested infrastructure. So what kinds of building blocks do developers need?
First, you need compute resources. The Elastic Compute Cloud, or EC2, allows developers to rent virtual computers, running in our data centers, and pay for them by the hour. Provision as many as you need – 1, 10, 1000, for as long as you need them, and you pay only for what you use (starting at 10 cents/hour).
Next, you probably need somewhere to durably store and retrieve data. The Simple Storage Service, is, well, a simple storage service that allows to store and retrieve objects in the cloud using simple put and get API calls.
You might need to index and query for that data, or create other structured data that you want to query, which is what we built SimpleDB.
On the application platforms point, good to mention:
Microsoft .NET
IBM WebSphere
Ruby
PHP
Oracle Fusion Middleware
JBoss
Also a good place to mention IBM AMIs (bring your own license or pay by the hour)
SimpleDB is a very easy to use database service that can be used for a variety of tasks, including indexing information stored in S3, maintaining access and other types of logs for your applications, and storing all kinds of structured data in a reliable, scalable database.
You can see a quick example of how easy SimpleDB is to use. Here’s your classic products table with an item number, description, and other attributes for each product. You can see the queries we’d use to store and retrieve data from SimpleDB. With SimpleDB, the API for putting data into the database is very flexible. I can add as much data as I’d like to each of the attributes for a given product. Querying the database is just as easy. I specify the “Domain” (or table) and the fields on which I’d like to execute the query. In this case, I’d like to obtain all items in the table whose description matches the given parameter.
SQS is an easy to use queueing service. The most typical use case for SQS is to coordinate activity between multiple EC2 instances. Take, for example, a typical web application with a presentation tier, application server or business logic tier, and database tier. You’d typically have multiple EC2 instances on the presentation and application server tiers, which would be working independently to process requests coming to your site.
Amazon SQS is a queueing service that can provide the glue between your web server and your application server. The most common setup will involve configuring two queues. The first queue will accept messages from the web server hosted on Amazon EC2. Application servers, also hosted on Amazon EC2, will pluck those messages off the queue, process data based on the contents of the message, and then place the equivalent of an “I’m done! Here are the results.” message on the second queue. The web server would then pluck the message off the second queue and return results back to the client that made the initial request. In this way, your Amazon EC2 instances can grow or shrink, startup and fail with impunity, while you can rest assured that all of your data processing happens reliably.
