Slides from my talk at ConFoo Montreal, February 2016. A presentation on how to apply configuration management (CM) principles for your various environments, to control changes made to them. You apply CM on your code, why not on your environments content? This presentation will present the infrastructure as code principles using Chef and/or Ansible. Topics discussed include Continuous Integration, Continuous Delivery/Deployment principles, Infrastructure As Code and DevOps.
Implementing DevOps is one of the most important investments a growing Salesforce team can make. An effective DevOps process can greatly reduce release overhead and ensure faster feature and bugfix delivery. But there is no easy solution for Salesforce DevOps: there are a multitude of options out there with varying levels of complexity. Do you buy a third-party solution, or build your own using Salesforce DX and other tools? Technical Architect, Chandler Anderson will share his experience working with various Salesforce DevOps solutions and give some insight on what might work for you.
Jeffrey Snover - Empowering DevOps with Azure StackWinOps Conf
Azure Stack is the first product in a new category – the hybrid cloud platform. It is a radical new product that you can think of as delivering the cloud equivalent of a SAN. Delivering a set of IaaS/PaaS Services, APIs, PowerShell and tooling experiences that are consistent with Azure allows it to run solutions from the Azure Marketplace. This allows companies to focus their dev and ops teams on the things that move their business forward, building applications which drive customer value.
This session focuses on what Azure Stack is and is not. It articulates the key values it delivers and use cases it enables.

London Atlassian User Group - February 2014Steve Smith
Continuous deployment is causing organisations to rethink how they build and release software. Atlassian Bamboo is rapidly adding features to help with automating deployment, but there are a lot of other practical and organisational issues that need to be addressed when adopting this development model. The Atlassian business-platforms team has been dealing with these issues over the last few months as we transition our order system to continuous deployment. This talk will cover why we adopted this model, some of challenges we encountered, and the approaches and tools we used to overcome them.

KEYNOTE | WHAT'S COMING IN THE NEXT 10 YEARS OF DEVOPS? // ELLEN CHISA, bolds...DevOpsDays Tel Aviv
Fifteen years ago, we'd barely started to use S3, and ten years ago DevOps was the new thing. Today, we can add a new tool, technology, or trick every week, and more and more work is shifted into the application developer's workflow. If security, resiliency, and incident response become part of product teams, where will we be ten years from now, and what should we do today to get ready?
Help students get familiar with the basic concepts of DevOps processes and technologies and the challenges facing companies who are looking to embrace scalable software deployment.

Data-Driven DevOps: Improve Velocity and Quality of Software Delivery with Me...Splunk
Much of the value of DevOps comes from a (renewed) focus on measurement, sharing, and continuous feedback loops. In increasingly complex DevOps workflows and environments, and especially in larger, regulated, or more crystallized organizations, these core concepts become even more critical.
This session will show how, by focusing on 'metrics that matter,' you can provide objective, transparent, and meaningful feedback on DevOps processes to all stakeholders. Learn from real-life examples how to use the data generated throughout application delivery to continuously identify, measure, and improve deployment speed, code quality, process efficiency, outsourcing value, security coverage, audit success, customer satisfaction, and business alignment.
Continuous Delivery with TFS msbuild msdeployPeter Gfader
If you are deploying your software manually, you are doing it wrong.
If you deploying once a month, you are doing it wrong.
If you as a developer are deploying from Visual Studio by clicking "Publish", you are doing it wrong.
If a bug-fix takes you 1 hour but your customer needs to wait a week until he gets it, you are doing it wrong.
Manual deployments are NOT fun. See a good way on how to automate the deployment with TFS 2010, msbuild and msdeploy.

Understanding Globus Data Transfers with NetSageGlobus
NetSage is an open privacy-aware network measurement, analysis, and visualization service designed to help end-users visualize and reason about large data transfers. NetSage traditionally has used a combination of passive measurements, including SNMP and flow data, as well as active measurements, mainly perfSONAR, to provide longitudinal network performance data visualization. It has been deployed by dozens of networks world wide, and is supported domestically by the Engagement and Performance Operations Center (EPOC), NSF #2328479. We have recently expanded the NetSage data sources to include logs for Globus data transfers, following the same privacy-preserving approach as for Flow data. Using the logs for the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) as an example, this talk will walk through several different example use cases that NetSage can answer, including: Who is using Globus to share data with my institution, and what kind of performance are they able to achieve? How many transfers has Globus supported for us? Which sites are we sharing the most data with, and how is that changing over time? How is my site using Globus to move data internally, and what kind of performance do we see for those transfers? What percentage of data transfers at my institution used Globus, and how did the overall data transfer performance compare to the Globus users?

Why React Native as a Strategic Advantage for Startup Innovation.pdfayushiqss
Do you know that React Native is being increasingly adopted by startups as well as big companies in the mobile app development industry? Big names like Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest have already integrated this robust open-source framework.
In fact, according to a report by Statista, the number of React Native developers has been steadily increasing over the years, reaching an estimated 1.9 million by the end of 2024. This means that the demand for this framework in the job market has been growing making it a valuable skill.
But what makes React Native so popular for mobile application development? It offers excellent cross-platform capabilities among other benefits. This way, with React Native, developers can write code once and run it on both iOS and Android devices thus saving time and resources leading to shorter development cycles hence faster time-to-market for your app.
Let’s take the example of a startup, which wanted to release their app on both iOS and Android at once. Through the use of React Native they managed to create an app and bring it into the market within a very short period. This helped them gain an advantage over their competitors because they had access to a large user base who were able to generate revenue quickly for them.

Designing for Privacy in Amazon Web ServicesKrzysztofKkol1
Data privacy is one of the most critical issues that businesses face. This presentation shares insights on the principles and best practices for ensuring the resilience and security of your workload.
Drawing on a real-life project from the HR industry, the various challenges will be demonstrated: data protection, self-healing, business continuity, security, and transparency of data processing. This systematized approach allowed to create a secure AWS cloud infrastructure that not only met strict compliance rules but also exceeded the client's expectations.
2. Who am I?
I participated in multiple software development projects:
• from very small (<10 person) to large (~400 persons)
• from a long time ago (>20 years) up to now
• from different angles/roles: Developer, Architect, PM, DevOps/
BuildMaster, Software Release Manager
• I have seen software methods/processes come and go: Waterfall,
RUP, OpenUP, XP, Scrum, Scaled Agile, etc.
But the essential remains:
I believe that to produce good software, it takes good people +
resources AND discipline/professionalism/focus!
5. Nothing on the previous slide concerning
software context, where is the code
delivered, running, performing…
Agile typically deals with this with the Definition Of Done
concept, sadly overlooked way too often…
7. Suggestion #1:
The capability to release
(aka)
The frequency at which you are
delivering software updates
that add business value to your clients
without breaking any previously
delivered business value that you want
to retain
8. Suggestion #2:
The time to release
(aka)
The time it takes you to deliver
the smallest change/fix to your
software in production
11. From my point of view:
Lack of environments’
management
True for all types of environments:
DEV, QA, Staging, Production
12. Platform dependencies?
Do you manage them?
ex: Frameworks dependencies, external libraries
dependencies, etc. Are they either never updated or are
they continuously creating problem when you upgrade
them?
13. OS dependencies?
Do you manage them?
How is the OS changed on your platform? Does it break your applications
sometimes? Any logs/traces of those changes? Can they be rolled back in case
of problems?
14. Hardware/VM specs
dependencies?
Do you manage them?
What happens if available RAM/Disk/Network gets below
what your applications need? Do you know what they need?
15. If you manage your
environments, do you
manage them manually?
19. What techniques can reduce manual steps?
You could consider using DevOps:
CI server, CD server, Infrastructure as Code to automate
as mush as possible your release process
DevOps
Client
PO
Team
Delivery
25. Demos from unreleased software /
Difficulty to release in production
Involve Ops people in sprints
Releasing in prod should be doable by
anyone, anytime, using a single click
(rollback is obviously a feature you will want!)
27. Continuous Delivery/Deployment
Always have a shippable version available for your customers
Ex: GO CD (from Thoughtworks - now Open Source)
You can integrate your CI servers (Jenkins) with a CD server
28. Continuous Delivery/Deployment
A good practice to deploy gradually using cascaded
environments:
• (Development)
• Test
• Less resources, used mostly to validate business logic
• Staging/Pre-Production
• More representative of the production environment. Can be
used for load/performance testing. Typically uses a data set
that is a copy of the Production data set.
• Production
30. Infrastructure as Code
Your code is under CM, but your
infrastructure is typically not! It also needs
to be versioned, tracked and automated!
31. There are so many tools available. But essentially,
keep ALL under source control, including what it takes
to reproduce your production environment from ZERO
Infrastructure as Code
• How to restart a hardware environment/virtual machines
• How to install the platform on the machines
• How to install the applications on the platforms
• How to configure the whole stack
• The databases schemas and content
• Everything!
32. If you are not convinced, think about your disaster
recovery plan (you have one, right?)
Infrastructure as Code
What if your server room is destroyed by water/
fire? (or the one from your cheap cloud provider…)
With IaC at least, the software part is covered in
case of disaster
34. DevOps
• A Good app without an infrastructure to run it is useless…
• A superb, scalable infrastructure without an app adding
business value to a customer is also useless…
• You need both!
• DevOps should not be a separate team! It serves to
bridge the gap between development and operations
teams.
• And if you are not convinced that DevOps cannot
typically be a single person’s responsibility…
39. Demo content
• GO CD presentation
• Application build pipeline
• connected to GitHub for app code
• running unit tests
• Triggering Staging pipeline on success
• using Vagrant + VirtualBox + Ansible to provision
production like environment for system tests
• connected to GitHub for IaC code
• Triggering Deployment pipeline on success
• using Ansible (Tower) to provision non VM
production multiple environments
45. Agility is more than Agile values and
ceremonies
It is acting as per the Agile values and
producing software with related best practices
46. But where to start?
Every Agile cycle, try to improve on those issues, trying
to automate everything you can, while having the
conversation with your key stakeholders
51. Ex: See how using the Vagrant
file, we can provision the
platform
config.vm.box = “hashicorp/precise64"
config.vm.network :forwarded_port, guest: 80, host: 4567
config.vm.provision :shell, path: “bootstrap.sh"
#!/usr/bin/env bash
apt-get update
apt-get install -y apache2
if ! [ -L /var/www ]; then
rm -rf /var/www
ln -fs /vagrant /var/www
fi
apt-get install -y python3
52. How to install the
applications on the
platforms
Ex: We can simply reuse the GIT clone using a shared
folder between host and guest VM or use similar
platform provisioning technique to perform a git clone in
the VM after provisioning
