OSCON 2013 - The Hitchiker’s Guide to Open Source Cloud ComputingMark Hinkle
And while the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy (HHGTTG) is a wholly remarkable book it doesn’t cover the nuances of cloud computing. Whether you want to build a public, private or hybrid cloud there are free and open source tools that can help provide you a complete solution or help augment your existing Amazon or other hosted cloud solution. That’s why you need the Hitchhiker’s Guide to (Open Source) Cloud Computing (HHGTCC) or at least to attend this talk understand the current state of open source cloud computing. This talk will cover infrastructure-as-a-service, platform-as-a-service and developments in big data and how to more effectively deploy and manage open source flavors of these technologies. Specific the guide will cover:
Infrastructure-as-a-Service – The Systems Cloud – Get a comparison of the open source cloud platforms including OpenStack, Apache CloudStack, Eucalyptus and OpenNebula
Platform-as-a-Service – The Developers Cloud – Learn about the tools that abstract the complexity for developers and used to build portable auto-scaling applications ton CloudFoundry, OpenShift, Stackato and more.
Data-as-a-Service – The Analytics Cloud – Want to figure out the who, what, where, when and why of big data? You’ll get an overview of open source NoSQL databases and technologies like MapReduce to help parallelize data mining tasks and crunch massive data sets in the cloud.
Network-as-a-Service – The Network Cloud – The final pillar for truly fungible network infrastructure is network virtualization. We will give an overview of software-defined networking including OpenStack Quantum, Nicira, open Vswitch and others.
Finally this talk will provide an overview of the tools that can help you really take advantage of the cloud. Do you want to auto-scale to serve millions of web pages and scale back down as demand fluctuates. Are you interested in automating the total lifecycle of cloud computing environments You’ll learn how to combine these tools into tool chains to provide continuous deployment systems that will help you become agile and spend more time improving your IT rather than simply maintaining it.
[Finally, for those of you that are Douglas Adams fans please accept the deepest apologies for bad analogies to the HHGTTG.]

Linux VDI with OpenStack – How to Deliver Linux Virtual Desktops on DemandLeostream
It’s no secret that Linux has a loyal fan-base across the development community and industries such as government, engineering, and oil & gas. But, when it comes to VDI, the operating system often gets the short end of the stick.
How can you lower IT costs when applications run on a Linux operating system? How can you handle a mixture of Windows and Linux in a hosted environment? And, how do you ensure a seamless end-user experience, while maximizing resource usage and minimizing downtime?
The truth is, Linux VDI doesn’t have to be hard. You can create a virtual Linux environment that provides an efficient way to access hosted resources on centrally managed servers. By combining the Leostream Connection Broker with a high-performance protocol, managing a hosted Linux environment can be as simple, seamless, and powerful as a hosted Windows environment.

Big Data Processing Above and Beyond Hadoop: Data-intensive computing represents a new computing paradigm to address Big Data processing requirements using high-performance architectures supporting scalable parallel processing to allow government, commercial organizations, and research environments to process massive amounts of data and implement new applications previously thought to be impractical or infeasible. The fundamental challenges of data-intensive computing are managing and processing exponentially growing data volumes, significantly reducing associated data analysis cycles to support practical, timely applications, and developing new algorithms which can scale to search and process massive amounts of data. The open source HPCC (High-Performance Computing Cluster) Systems platform offers a unified approach to Big Data processing requirements: (1) a scalable, integrated computer systems hardware and software architecture designed for parallel processing of data-intensive computing applications, and (2) a new programming paradigm in the form of a high-level, declarative, data-centric programming language designed specifically for big data processing. This presentation explores the challenges of data-intensive computing from a programming perspective, and describes the ECL programming language and the HPCC architecture designed for data-intensive computing applications. HPCC is an alternative to the Hadoop platform, and ECL is compared to Pig Latin, a high-level language developed for the Hadoop MapReduce architecture.

Achieve Sub-Second Analytics on Apache Kafka with Confluent and Implyconfluent
Presenters: Rachel Pedreschi, Senior Director, Solutions Engineering, Imply.io + Josh Treichel, Partner Solutions Architect, Confluent
Analytic pipelines running purely on batch processing systems can suffer from hours of data lag, resulting in accuracy issues with analysis and overall decision-making. Join us for a demo to learn how easy it is to integrate your Apache Kafka® streams in Apache Druid (incubating) to provide real-time insights into the data.
In this online talk, you’ll hear about ingesting your Kafka streams into Imply’s scalable analytic engine and gaining real-time insights via a modern user interface.
Register now to learn about:
-The benefits of combining a real-time streaming platform with a comprehensive analytics stack
-Building an analytics pipeline by integrating Confluent Platform and Imply
-How KSQL, streaming SQL for Kafka, can easily transform and filter streams of data in real time
-Querying and visualizing streaming data in Imply
-Practical ways to implement Confluent Platform and Imply to address common use cases such as analyzing network flows, collecting and monitoring IoT data and visualizing clickstream data
Confluent Platform, developed by the creators of Kafka, enables the ingest and processing of massive amounts of real-time event data. Imply, the complete analytics stack built on Druid, can ingest, store, query and visualize streaming data from Confluent Platform, enabling end-to-end real-time analytics. Together, Confluent and Imply can provide low latency data delivery, data transform, and data querying capabilities to power a range of use cases.
Organizations are intrigued and excited by the ability to reduce costs, gain new insights and expand their data playground with Hadoop. However, when it comes time to design and execute their strategy, they face two fundamental challenges: “Where do I start?” followed by, “Now that I’ve started, how do I keep up?”
The ecosystem of Hadoop tools is constantly expanding to keep up as demands (real-time, self-service, etc.) and data growth (more sources, larger volumes) increase. Innovation is good, but added complexity, uncertainty and risk is not.
If you’re committed to realizing the benefits of Hadoop, but are taken aback by the complexities and pace of change in the Big Data landscape, watch this webcast to learn about:
Finding the right use case – Successful companies realize the fastest time to value and create a foundation for big data analytics by starting with familiar use cases such as offloading enterprise data warehouses and mainframes to Hadoop.
Exploring the landscape of Big Data tools -- Learn about common tools used in Hadoop implementations as illustrated by real-world use cases.
Shielding your organization from the complexities of Hadoop while staying current as Big Data technologies evolve – Solutions like Syncsort DMX-h allow users to visually design data transformations once and deploy them anywhere—across Hadoop MapReduce, Apache Spark, or whatever framework becomes popular next.

Help skilled workers succeed with Dell Latitude 7030 and 7230 Rugged Extreme ...Principled Technologies
Instead of equipping consumer-grade tablets with rugged cases
Conclusion
In our hands-on testing, the Dell Latitude 7030 and 7230 Rugged Extreme Tablets showed that they are better equipped to help skilled workers than consumer-grade Apple iPad Pro and Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 tablets in multiple ways. They provide more built-in capabilities and features than the consumer-grade tablets we tested. And, while they were more expensive than the rugged-case fortified consumer-grade options we tested, their rugged claims were more than skin deep.
In our performance and durability tests, the Dell Latitude 7030 and 7230 Rugged Extreme Tablets performed better in demanding manufacturing, logistics, and field service environments than consumer-grade tablets with rugged cases. Both Rugged Extreme Tablets, with their greater thermal range, suffered less performance degradation in extreme temperatures, never failed and were merely scuffed after 26 hard drops, survived a 10 minute drenching with no ill effects, and were easier to view in direct sunlight than Apple iPad Pro and Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 tablets.

Investing in GenAI: Cost‑benefit analysis of Dell on‑premises deployments vs....Principled Technologies
Conclusion
Diving into the world of GenAI has the potential to yield a great many benefits for your organization, but it first requires consideration for how best to implement those GenAI workloads. Whether your AI goals are to create a chatbot for online visitors, generate marketing materials, aid troubleshooting, or something else, implementing an AI solution requires careful planning and decision-making. A major decision is whether to host GenAI in the cloud or keep your data on premises. Traditional on-premises solutions can provide superior security and control, a substantial concern when dealing with large amounts of potentially sensitive data. But will supporting a GenAI solution on site be a drain on an organization’s IT budget?
In our research, we found that the value proposition is just the opposite: Hosting GenAI workloads on premises, either in a traditional Dell solution or using a managed Dell APEX pay-per-use solution, could significantly lower your GenAI costs over 3 years compared to hosting these workloads in the cloud. In fact, we found that a comparable AWS SageMaker solution would cost up to 3.8 times as much and an Azure ML solution would cost up to 3.6 times as much as GenAI on a Dell APEX pay-per-use solution. These results show that organizations looking to implement GenAI and reap the business benefits to come can find many advantages in an on-premises Dell solution, whether they opt to purchase and manage it themselves or choose a subscription-based Dell APEX pay-per-use solution. Choosing an on-premises Dell solution could save your organization significantly over hosting GenAI in the cloud, while giving you control over the security and privacy of your data as well as any updates and changes to the environment, and while ensuring your environment is managed consistently.
Workstations powered by Intel can play a vital role in CPU-intensive AI devel...Principled Technologies
In three AI development workflows, Intel processor-powered workstations delivered strong performance, without using their GPUs, making them a good choice for this part of the AI process
Conclusion
We executed three AI development workflows on tower workstations and mobile workstations from three vendors, with each workflow utilizing only the Intel CPU cores, and found that these platforms were suitable for carrying out various AI tasks. For two of the workflows, we learned that completing the tasks on the tower workstations took roughly half as much time as on the mobile workstations. This supports the idea that the tower workstations would be appropriate for a development environment for more complex models with a greater volume of data and that the mobile workstations would be well-suited for data scientists fine-tuning simpler models. In the third workflow, we explored tower workstation performance with different precision levels and learned that using 16-bit floating point precision allowed the workstations to execute the workflow in less time and also reduced memory usage dramatically. For all three AI workflows we executed, we consider the time the workstations needed to complete the tasks to be acceptable, and believe that these workstations can be appropriate, cost-effective choices for these kinds of activities.

Get comparable online transaction processing (OLTP) performance with or without enabling AMD Secure Memory Encryption and AMD Secure Encrypted Virtualization - Encrypted State
Conclusion
You’ve likely already implemented many security measures for your servers, which may include physical security for the data center, hardware-level security, and software-level security. With the cost of data breaches high and still growing, however, wise IT teams will consider what additional security measures they may be able to implement.
AMD SME and SEV-ES are technologies that are already available within your AMD processor-powered 16th Generation Dell PowerEdge servers—and in our testing, we saw that they can offer extra layers of security without affecting performance. We compared the online transaction processing performance of a Dell PowerEdge R7625 server, powered by AMD EPYC 9274F processors, with and without these two security features enabled. We found that enabling AMD Secure Memory Encryption and Secure Encrypted Virtualization-Encrypted State did not impact performance at all.
If your team is assessing areas where you might be able to enhance security—without paying a large performance cost—consider enabling AME SME and AMD SEV-ES in your Dell PowerEdge servers.
