Cloud 2.0 - How Containers, Microservices and Open Source Software are Redefi...Mark Hinkle
Led by the rocket like success of Amazon Web Services cloud computing is a paradigm shift in the way we host and deploy infrastructure. Organizations are consuming cloud infrastructure across multiple cloud providers both inside their data center and the data centers of others. The advent of highly portable workloads via containers (e.g. Docker) and discrete units of computing delivered by microservices are enabling organizations (like Netflix) to deploy complex multi-layered products and services at breakneck speeds.
This talk will give an overview of the major cloud services and the open source software (e.g. OpenStack, Apache CloudStack) that can be used to deliver and manage cloud computing infrastructure(e.g. Puppet, Chef, Ansible). The discussion will cover the evolution of cloud computing and how that sets the stage for realizing the agility, flexibility and power of cloud computing.
Attendees should expect to learn about the leading technologies in cloud computing, strategies for using open source software to create/manage cloud computing services and to gain an understanding how current developments are providing a way to create a single cloud fabric that best serves their individual needs.

Ensuring Cloud Native Success: Organization TransformationChloe Jackson
Are you being asked to put more cloud in your strategy? If you’re like most people, the answer is a definite yes. The word “cloud” can mean so many things, however, that making an actionable strategy is impossible. At Pivotal, we divide cloud into two distinct parts: migrating as many legacy applications into SaaS as possible and focusing on perfecting the software you build in-house that runs your business. Gartner is predicting that by 2020, 75% of applications used to support digital businesses will be built in-house. If you’re one of these companies, you’ll need to quickly evaluate how you develop and run your custom written software.
We believe that soon, every company will either be a software company or losing to a competitor who is. It’s time to focus on the craft of managing the software development life-cycle, and this brief, but dense webinar will help launch your efforts to become a software defined business.
Join us in the last installment in our series: Organization Transformation - to get the full benefit of a cloud native approach, you'll likely need to change how your organization functions and behaves: you'll have to change its culture. When software is thought of more as ongoing products instead of discrete projects, the way the IT department is managed and run changes accordingly. This last part covers the motivations for those changes and outlines how to start transforming everyday management, strategy, staffing, and operations to become a cloud native enterprise.
Presenter: Michael Coté
The document discusses the shift towards cloud native application development. Some key points discussed include:
1. Cloud native originated in customer-facing tech companies and emphasizes building applications in, for, and maximizing the benefits of the cloud.
2. When developing new applications, organizations should focus on functional and non-functional requirements to determine the appropriate architecture, runtime environment, and degree of "cloudiness".
3. Cloud native development requires learning new topics like microservices, DevOps, serverless computing, and distributed systems.
Cloud Native Computing: What does it mean, and is your app Cloud Native?Michael O'Sullivan
There is a growing choice of Cloud Platforms available today - these provide services and tooling for developers to deploy applications to the Cloud. The Cloud has brought considerations such as elastic scalability and distributed computing to the forefront of modern application architectures. Over time, a new type of application has now emerged, known as the Cloud Native Application. Such an application is said to be purpose-built for deployment on the Cloud. This has even led to a new paradigm known as Cloud Native Computing. In practice though, it is easy to be confused or unclear as to what Cloud Native means. How does a Cloud Native approach change the way in which developers code applications? How does this influence the architecture of an application? Does it force you to use a certain set of technologies such as Containers? Or, does it mean that an application that simply runs and scales on a distributed Cloud Platform is somehow considered to be running natively on the Cloud? Cloud Native Computing impacts on the answers to each of these questions, and applications running on the Cloud may not be considered Cloud Native at all.
In this talk, the meaning of Cloud Native will be explored and clarified. With practical examples where appropriate, the concepts behind a Cloud Native Application will be demonstrated. These examples will not only touch on the common terms and phrases around Cloud Native Computing such as DevOps, Microservices, The 12-Factor App methodology, but also on the technologies that have driven the creation this new paradigm, such as Cloud Foundry, Docker, and Kubernetes. How these technologies are used to deploy and scale Cloud Native Applications on "Platform as a Service" (PaaS) Cloud Platforms will also be presented.
At the conclusion, what is considered a Cloud Native Application and why should be clear - the attributes and typical architecture of such an application, as well as how technologies and PaaS services can be used to drive these applications on the cloud.

Hack for Good and Profit (Cloud Foundry Summit 2014)VMware Tanzu
Hackathons are fun events where developers innovate, learn and build development communities. Whether conducted in an academic setting or a corporate one, the aim is to rapidly produce functional code implementations focused around one or more designated themes. Cloud Foundry is a perfect target platform for hackathons, since it supports fast application deployment for continuous integration, abstracted infrastructure, and ample technology choices in terms of buildpacks and services. For those less familiar with cloud computing, Cloud Foundry provides an ideal opportunity for participants to be introduced to new application hosting techniques (Platform as a Service) and learn keys concepts of building applications for the cloud.
Cornelia Davis from Pivotal Software and Catherine Spence from Intel share their experiences in leveraging Cloud Foundry in support of numerous hackathons. They discuss what worked well, and less so, and share with you why and how you can deliver your own hackathon event.
OpenStack has become mainstream in enterprise deployments, growing from 16% to 67% of production deployments. Enterprises need help moving thousands of existing applications to modern hybrid infrastructures using OpenStack. HPE's multi-cloud strategy and OpenStack-based solutions help enterprises deploy OpenStack across industries to run all types of workloads while providing services for security, compliance, monitoring, and integration with existing infrastructure. More work remains to be done to further scale OpenStack and address requirements for containerization, disaster recovery, multi-cloud management, and regulatory compliance across industries.
This document discusses 4 levels of IoT maturity and how Cloud Foundry can help organizations achieve the highest level of maturity. It begins with an analogy about turning raw data into a gourmet meal using a kitchen and restaurant-style services. It then discusses 3 common problems organizations face with data and proposes Cloud Foundry as a solution. The next section discusses a case study of a medical device company using Cloud Foundry to securely and cost-effectively monitor devices. It concludes by recommending some open-source IoT apps to try on Cloud Foundry.

The History of Pets vs. Cattle ... And Using It ProperlyRandy Bias
The document discusses the history and evolution of the "pets vs cattle" metaphor for describing how servers are managed. Originally, servers were treated like pets that were individually cared for, but in modern cloud computing they are treated like cattle in a herd that can be replaced without individual attention when one goes down. This shift reflects how infrastructure has become automated, standardized and able to dynamically scale out on demand. The metaphor helped explain why cloud computing was different from traditional IT and how failures could be handled without impact.
OpenStack Summit :: Profiling the Nova SchedulerRandy Bias
The document discusses profiling the Nova scheduler in OpenStack. It finds that the Essex scheduler was slow and scheduled too many virtual machines in some situations. The scheduler looked at each VM individually, used synchronous RPC calls, and boto retries led to multiple scheduling attempts when API timeouts occurred. These factors combined to cause performance issues with large scheduling requests. The Folsom scheduler addressed these problems with improvements like asynchronous messaging and handling scheduling as a group.
Is There Such a Thing as a Private Cloud? Citrix Synergy 2011Randy Bias
Is there such a thing as a private cloud?
Cloudscaling's Troy Angrignon participated in a panel on private cloud at Citrix Synergy 2011 in San Francisco on May 26, 2011. The conclusions:
- All three of the panelists agreed that there is such a thing as private cloud.
- Carpathia specializes in building high complexity custom private clouds.
- There are two types of clouds: legacy clouds for highly regulated, complex client/server type IT stacks and webscale clouds for less regulated, web/mobile, greenfield and simpler stacks that need to scale.
- Panel discussed how those two models (legacy cloud and webscale cloud) could be found inside (private) or outside (public).
- Key is to realize that applications should always be moved to the platform that is appropriate for the application, use case, regulatory requirement, elasticity requirement.

Services are the New Cloud Platform (Services-as-a-Platform)Randy Bias
This document discusses the rise of services as the new cloud platform (SaaP) and how they enable business agility. It defines SaaS, PaaS, and IaaS more tightly and introduces SaaP as composable, reusable services optimized for DevOps. SaaP allows for an a la carte consumption model versus the prix fixe model of PaaS. The document argues that AWS operates more as SaaP than IaaS/PaaS and that DevOps without SaaP misses something important. It concludes that speed is the new norm, with new culture (DevOps) and tools (SaaP) driving internal SaaP for business agility in the
OpenStack Architected Like AWS (and GCP)Randy Bias
A description of how we built Open Cloud System (OCS), an OpenStack-powered complete cloud operating system. With a focus on AWS and GCE interoperability, we describe why hybrid cloud interoperability matters and how we got there. Anyone can do it and we think you should too.
(1) The document describes OpenStack networking architecture that scales to over 1,000 servers without using Neutron. It uses a layer 3 spine and leaf topology with no VLANs.
(2) Key components include Nova network which is distributed, NAT services on the edge, and a VIF driver that sets up routing and DHCP for each VM.
(3) Challenges included moving OpenStack targets and an immature Neutron. The architecture provides a solid underlay for SDN and future integration with Neutron.

Running your own infrastructure *can* be as little as half the cost of running on AWS once you are at scale. OpenStack-based cloud systems can provide the same or similar economies of scale if you leverage the lessons of AWS and GCE when building your cloud. This talk discusses the economic factors in designing a cost-efficient AWS + OpenStack hybrid cloud. We look at the issues involved in repatriating existing applications, and show a couple of real-world demonstration of tools that can assist in the repatriation process. Repatriation isn quite as simple as hitting the Easy button, but if you plan your deployment correctly, you can make it work, both technically and economically.
This 2nd major State of the Stack address is a complete refresh of the spring 2013 edition, broadcast live on BrightTALK from the OpenStack Summit in Hong Kong.
(Replay: https://www.brighttalk.com/webcast/10353/92159)
Randy Bias, CEO and Co-founder of Cloudscaling examines the progress from Grizzly to Havana and delves into new areas like refstack, tripleO, bare metal server provisioning, the move from "projects" to "programs", and public/hybrid cloud compatibility. Check out the updated statistics on project momentum and look more closely at big upgrades in Havana, including OpenStack Orchestrate (Heat), which has the opportunity to change the game for OpenStack in the greater private and hybrid cloud game. We also discuss the "what is 'core'" debate and examine the idea that OpenStack is a kernel, not a complete cloud OS.
Existing approaches to delivering persistent block storage in OpenStack focus on integrating existing SAN/NAS hardware solutions, using Distributed File Systems (DFS), or using simple Direct Attached Storage (DAS) with Cinder. There is another alternative: scale-out block storage nodes with intelligent scheduling. This is the same approach that Amazon Web Services (AWS) uses for Elastic Block Storage (EBS) and it's worth taking a close look at the pros and cons. This presentation will explore the differences between SAN, NAS, DFS, DAS, and EBS. We will look at the implicit and explicit contracts that users and operators get from the different approaches and look at a variety of failure conditions. EBS may not be right for some clouds, but for many it's an important and viable alternative to the existing approaches.

OpenStack Summit :: Redundancy Doesn't Always Mean "HA" or "Cluster"Randy Bias
1) "HA" pairs are commonly used but are not the only way to achieve redundancy. They have limitations around catastrophic failures and lack of scale out.
2) Alternative patterns like distributed load balancing and brokerless messaging can provide redundancy without single points of failure and allow for scale out.
3) Service distribution is presented as a superior approach that combines standard networking technologies to provide resilient, stateless and scale out services for OpenStack.
Randy Bias, Co-Founder and CTO of Cloudscaling, speaks on open storage, fault tolerance and the concept of failure "blast radius" at the Open Storage Summit, hosted by Nexenta in May 2012.
The document discusses distributed RPC in OpenStack Nova using ZeroMQ. It proposes a solution of using decentralized peer-to-peer communication between the Nova components rather than relying on a centralized message broker. This involves using ZeroMQ for direct topic subscription between the Nova Network, Compute, and Scheduler components. It also describes using matchmaking and fanout casting to distribute messages to multiple worker nodes.

Carrier Cloud Opportunity - TM Forum Management World Dublin 2011Randy Bias
Cloudscaling Co-Founder and CTO Randy Bias shows the world's largest telcos that carriers must embrace web-scale cloud to be successful in the apps that will drive mobile, web and emerging markets. Legacy "clouds" are essentially virtualized and automated IT, and they do not offer the cost performance or business agility these hyper-growth segments demand.
The document discusses the myths around enterprise clouds and argues that commodity clouds are more successful. It notes that while enterprises claim they need specialized enterprise clouds, commodity clouds actually provide significant benefits and cost savings due to their standardized, optimized infrastructure and economies of scale. The document shows data on the rapid growth and revenue of Amazon Web Services, indicating that the commodity cloud model is winning. It estimates that investment in enterprise clouds will be much higher than commodity clouds from 2009-2013 due to the higher hardware and operational costs of enterprise clouds compared to commodity clouds. In conclusion, the document suggests that enterprises should focus on serving greenfield, cloud-ready applications on commodity clouds rather than attempting to build proprietary enterprise clouds.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...Alex Pruden
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

In the realm of cybersecurity, offensive security practices act as a critical shield. By simulating real-world attacks in a controlled environment, these techniques expose vulnerabilities before malicious actors can exploit them. This proactive approach allows manufacturers to identify and fix weaknesses, significantly enhancing system security.
This presentation delves into the development of a system designed to mimic Galileo's Open Service signal using software-defined radio (SDR) technology. We'll begin with a foundational overview of both Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and the intricacies of digital signal processing.
The presentation culminates in a live demonstration. We'll showcase the manipulation of Galileo's Open Service pilot signal, simulating an attack on various software and hardware systems. This practical demonstration serves to highlight the potential consequences of unaddressed vulnerabilities, emphasizing the importance of offensive security practices in safeguarding critical infrastructure.
From Natural Language to Structured Solr Queries using LLMsSease
This talk draws on experimentation to enable AI applications with Solr. One important use case is to use AI for better accessibility and discoverability of the data: while User eXperience techniques, lexical search improvements, and data harmonization can take organizations to a good level of accessibility, a structural (or “cognitive” gap) remains between the data user needs and the data producer constraints.
That is where AI – and most importantly, Natural Language Processing and Large Language Model techniques – could make a difference. This natural language, conversational engine could facilitate access and usage of the data leveraging the semantics of any data source.
The objective of the presentation is to propose a technical approach and a way forward to achieve this goal.
The key concept is to enable users to express their search queries in natural language, which the LLM then enriches, interprets, and translates into structured queries based on the Solr index’s metadata.
This approach leverages the LLM’s ability to understand the nuances of natural language and the structure of documents within Apache Solr.
The LLM acts as an intermediary agent, offering a transparent experience to users automatically and potentially uncovering relevant documents that conventional search methods might overlook. The presentation will include the results of this experimental work, lessons learned, best practices, and the scope of future work that should improve the approach and make it production-ready.
Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).
QA or the Highway - Component Testing: Bridging the gap between frontend appl...zjhamm304
These are the slides for the presentation, "Component Testing: Bridging the gap between frontend applications" that was presented at QA or the Highway 2024 in Columbus, OH by Zachary Hamm.
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.
