How do measure our progress in a journey towards continuous integration? What are other people doing?
This presentation provides an measuring stick for CD Maturity and simple pattern for reviewing your current situation and deciding what to work on next.
Continuous Delivery is hot. As we all increasingly compete using software, the business always wants more change faster. However, change is seen as risky. How do we deliver quickly while not exposing the business to excessive risk? What does this imply for how we update our mission critical databases?
Successful continuous delivery efforts use quality as an enabler of rapid change. Rapid feedback on the quality of the application, and a disciplined, high quality process support frequent delivery of business value, rather than frequent outage.
IBM UrbanCode’s Eric Minick and DBmaestro’s Yaniv Yehuda present how to build safety in to your delivery process. We will look at database change in some detail while delivering generally applicable lessons.

Get Mapped: Using Value Stream Mapping to Create a DevOps Adoption RoadmapIBM UrbanCode Products
Adopting DevOps is not a “one-and-done” project. It is adopting a mindset, a culture. It is a commitment to a journey of continuous improvement by adopting a set of capabilities and practices that are based on Lean principles. Adopting DevOps requires process improvement, automation of the processes using tools, and organizational change to enable a DevOps culture.
The question then becomes – where does one start?
Leading the Transformation: Applying DevOps and Agile Principles at ScaleIBM UrbanCode Products
Software is becoming more and more important across a broad range of industries, yet technology executives often struggle to understand how to transform their current legacy systems and processes to scale across their organizations.

ROLE OF iSAFE/iMobi IN SEAMLESS INTEGRATION OF THE DEVOPS ENVIRONMENTIndium Software
IP-led test automation framework supported by blueprint
for product development in Devops environment can
ensure automation in the true sense.
DevOps is fast becoming adopted as the environment for product
development. It facilitates closer integration of development and operations
teams, reducing the time needed to develop and deploy a product. However,
it is still in its early stages and the teams continue to work in silos due to the
different kinds of tools they need suited to their needs.
An IP-driven testing framework like iSAFE can be the bulwark on which the development, testing and operations teams can integrate more seamlessly,
as it provides one key feature needed when handling such a comprehensive
environment – traceability. The other advantages, of course, are reusability,
automated alerts and shorter testing periods, thus aiding in the quick time-to-market
needs of the organizations.

Dev ops for cross platform mobile modeveast 12Sanjeev Sharma
Mobile Apps are not stand alone applications running on a mobile device anymore. Apps today are complex systems with back-ends hosted on clouds, with application servers, databases, API calls to external systems, and of course a powerful app running on a mobile device. Mobile App development and deployment is further complicated with todays need for supporting multiple mobile devices, with multiple OSes, multiple versions of the OSes, multiple form factors and varied network, CPU, GPU and memory specs.
DevOps - the new and growing movement addresses these development and deployment challenges. The goal of DevOps is to align Dev and Ops by introducing a set of principles and practices such as continuous integration and continuous delivery. Mobile apps take the need for these practices up a level due to their inherent distributed nature. Multi-platform mobile apps need even more care in applying DevOps principles as there are multiple platforms to be targeted, each with its own requirements, quirks, and nuanced needs.
This talk will introduce attendees to the basic practices of DevOps and then take a look at the DevOps challenges specific to cross-platform Mobile apps and present Best Practices to address them.
Continuous Delivery for cloud - scenarios and scopeSanjeev Sharma
Cloud is both a catalyst and an enabler for DevOps. Having the flexibility and the services and capabilities provided by the Cloud lowers the barrier to adoption for organization looking to adopt DevOps. Hence, allowing them to achieve the business goals of Speed, Business Agility and Innovation.
This webinar will explore the impact of DevOps on using the Cloud as a Platform as a Service and vice versa. It will explore the different use cases of DevOps that are enabled or enhanced by the Cloud platform, and the different 'scopes' of adoption by organizations adopting Cloud and DevOps in an iterative manner.

Enterprise Mobile App UX: Designing from UI to BackendSanjeev Sharma
Enterprise Applications are typically no more than a User Interface to a set of complex back-end systems. They allow Systems of Record to become Systems of Interaction by putting the records and the ability to interact with them in the palm of your hand. A good User Experience with such a Mobile App requires designing the entire end-to-end architecture with the User Interaction in mind. What is your enterprise mobile apps’ back-end? Is it a single ‘black-box’ serving up data via REST calls? Or is it a set of back-ends, communicating with your app’s UI via multiple APIs. Does your back-end include services that require you to change your app’s UI every time it gets updated? Does the nature of your back-end impact how you build your app, impact the UI design decisions you need to take? How do you test all your back-end(s) for functionality and performance? How do you integrate all these pieces together? How do you provide a good User Experience? As you build complex mobile apps, the architecture of your complete end-to-end system – Backend to UI – becomes critical to your application’s success. This presentation will help attendees identify key architectural decisions that they need to take early in their mobile app development lifecycle to help address these challenges, reduce risk and cost and enhance the User Experience. It will do so by presenting examples of successful architectures of mobile apps and explore key decisions they took and why.

How to achieve 'Flow' in your delivery pipeline.
This was an 'Ignite' session at DevOpsDaysDC 2018. Ignite sessions are 5 minutes long with 20 slides auto-advancing every 15 seconds.
The complexity of managing and delivering the high level of reliability expected of web-based, cloud hosted systems today, and the expectation of Continuous Delivery of new features has led to the evolution of a totally new field of Service Reliability Engineering catered for such systems. Google, who has been a pioneer in this field, calls it Site Reliability Engineering (SRE). While it would be more aptly named Service Reliability Engineering, the name has caught on. The seminal work documenting Google approach and practices is in the book by Google by the same name (commonly referred to as the ‘SRE book’), and has become the defacto standard on how to adopt SRE in an organization. This session will cover adopting SRE as a practice in organizations also adopting DevOps; address the challenges to adopting SRE faced by large traditional enterprises, and how to overcome them.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

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).

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

29. 12 Steps to better DevOps
1. Do your developers and operators communicate the
production realities and the application's requirements?
2. Do you version deployment configuration and scripts
along with your source code?
3. Do you have patterns for platforms and applications,
designed jointly by development and operations?
4. Can your developers launch and destroy production-like
environments from those patterns?
5. Are your patterns based on reusable deployment
configuration scripts?
6. Can you deploy an environment (platform and application)
in one step?
7. Do you deploy your applications daily into production-like environments
and verify them?
8. Do you link bugs and work items to changes in the application and
configuration?
9. Do you associate tickets for production issues with relevant bugs
opened for development to fix?
10. Do you have automated tests to validate your application and platform
function and characteristics?
11. Do you monitor software against expectations after deploying your
application?
12. Do you have a delivery pipeline exposed through a summary
dashboard to assess delivery velocity?
