CCCNA17 Distributed CI and Testing for Cloudstack in a Hybrid Community

ShapeBlue

Everybody runs on specialised hardware and software environments. A lot of us are also running our own version of the Apache CloudStack software itself. This results in 1000s of different permutated environments in which it runs and should keep running. Is it realistic to want full test coverage, let alone a CI pipeline across all of these? This talk will outline a vision for a distributed, community based test platform that allows any users of the system to contribute automated test results, based on their environments and their configurations during the development life cycle. Two recent initiatives will be highlighted: the Trillian framework and @blueorangutan which contribute to delivering this overall vision. It'll also be shown what there is left to do and the input required from the community to make this vision reality.

Shmoocon 2015 - httpscreenshot

jstnkndy

httpscreenshot is a tool developed internally over the past year and a half. It has become one of our go to tools for the reconnaissance phase of every penetration test. The tool itself takes a list of addresses, domains, URLs, and visits each in a browser, parses SSL certificates to add new hosts, and captures a screenshot/HTML of the browser instance. Similar tools exist but none met our needs with regards to speed (threaded), features (JavaScript support, SSL auto detection and certificate scraping), and reliability. The cluster portion of the tool will go through and group "similar" websites together, where "similar" is determined by a fuzzy matching metric. This tool can be used by both blue and red teams. The blue teams can use this tool to quickly create an inventory of applications and devices they have running in their environments. This inventory will allow them to quickly see if there is anything running in their environment that they may not know about which should be secured or in many cases removed. The red teams can use this tool to quickly create the same inventory as part of our reconnaissance, which is often very effective in identifying potential target assets.

Automation: The Good, The Bad and The Ugly with DevOpsGuys - AppD Summit Europe

AppDynamics

A cornerstone of the DevOps philosophy, investment in automation at all stages across the SDLC has increased over recent years. Automation promises velocity and reduced errors, helps foster repeatable processes, and removes the need for long hours on dull, repetitive tasks. So what’s not to like? The downside of automation is that unless applied at the right place in your SDLC it can make a bad process worse. Automation also raises questions around job security, the need for re-skilling in other areas, and tool sprawl if different teams each choose their preferred technology. This session will outline: -A short chronology of where automation has impacted the modern software stack -Where it makes the most sense to automate (by identifying your key constraints) -Best practices for adopting automation and how to identify where it’s working — and where it isn’t For more information, visit: www.appdynamics.com

Minimum Viable Architecture - Good Enough is Good Enough

Randy Shoup

This document discusses the concept of minimal viable architecture and how architecture should evolve over time as a system grows. It recommends starting with simple prototypes and monolithic architectures, then transitioning to scalable architectures like microservices as needs increase. Key points are to solve current problems simply, use standard tools, iterate quickly, and focus on quality from the beginning rather than over-engineering prematurely. Architecture should progress from starting to scaling to optimizing phases as the system matures.

Enabling DPU Hardware Accelerators in XCP-ng Cloud Platform Environment - And...

ShapeBlue

In cloud computing environments, VMs require fast access to resources like storage and networking. The hardware that the VMs access is implemented in software and/or by passing through a dedicated hardware device. Software-based solutions consume extra CPU cycles, thus resulting in poor performance. Also, these require to expose a device-model to the guest, thus increasing the attack surface. Conversely, hardware passthrough provides better performance and security but can be expensive in terms of the number of physical resources, since each device is dedicated to a single VM. This talk focuses on how Vates is working on sharing hardware resources among VMs by relying on dedicated processors named Data Processing Units (DPU).
