Ubuntu Server - A Quick and Comprehensive Overviewevolutionaryit
Have you heard the news? Most everyone knows that Ubuntu is an outstanding desktop but few know of its compelling server option. Join us to find out why Ubuntu Server is a highly affordable, usable, stable and secure platform on which to build just about anything.
Open source software has seen widespread adoption in education. It allows for free collaboration and modification of software code. Over time, open source software has grown from isolated academic and research projects in the 1950s-60s to prominent free software projects like Linux and Firefox. Factors like cost savings, compatibility with older hardware, and educational benefits have contributed to its increasing use in education today.
Open source creates a new career ladder for software developers, orthogonal to the traditional career in software firms. Advancing on this career ladder can win developers broader recognition for their work, increase their salaries, and improve their job security. Software developers, project and hiring managers, and personnel departments alike need to understand this new dimension in a developer’s career. This talk explains the career and discusses what skills a developer should possess or train to be successful.
The document discusses setting up game servers using Linux and open source software. It begins with introducing the objectives of demystifying FOSS, having fun with FOSS by building a home game server, and discussing FOSS security and networking options. It then provides background on the presenter and an overview of FOSS, including what it is, common misperceptions, examples of its use, and licensing types. The rest of the document discusses using Ubuntu Server to set up the game server network and its features and package options that could be used.

The document provides a summary of the 31-year history of Linux from 1991 to 2022. It begins with Linus Torvalds announcing and releasing the initial Linux kernel in 1991. Key events include it becoming open source in 1992, the first Linux distributions in the early 1990s, and the growth of desktop Linux with projects like GNOME and KDE in the late 1990s. The document then covers increased adoption in Indonesia and events like the Indonesia Go Open Source initiative in the 2000s. It concludes with current trends like open source adoption concerns and most used open source technologies.
This document provides an overview of free and open source software (FOSS). It discusses the history of software sharing and development, the rise of proprietary software, and the free software movement started by Richard Stallman. FOSS tools like Linux have seen widespread adoption and now dominate areas like web servers and supercomputing. The document examines motivations for using FOSS such as cost savings, security, and avoiding vendor lock-in. It also discusses the competitive advantages that FOSS provides for both individuals and institutions.
This presentation discusses Free and Open Source Software (FOSS). It begins with a brief history of software development and the early days of sharing source code. It then covers the definitions of free software, open source software, and different software licenses. Examples are given of the success and widespread adoption of Linux and open source browsers and office suites. Strategies for effective use of FOSS in academic environments are discussed, along with open content and OER. Reasons why individuals and institutions should use FOSS include control, security, avoidance of lock-in, cross-platform use, fun and learning, involvement of students, and reduced costs. The presentation concludes by discussing business opportunities involving FOSS.
Open source an origin story to freedom covers the origin on open source, the two main currents in the landscape and the options we now have how to go forward.
The document discusses the history and development of open source software from the 1970s to the present. It outlines key events like Richard Stallman launching the GNU project and free software foundation in the late 1970s. It then discusses the growth of the open source movement in the 1980s and 1990s with projects like Linux and efforts by large tech companies to promote and develop open source software. By the late 1990s and 2000s, open source software like Firefox and Moodle had gained widespread adoption.
The document discusses the history and development of open source software from the 1970s to the present. It outlines key events like Richard Stallman launching the GNU project and free software foundation in the late 1970s. It then discusses the growth of the open source movement in the 1980s and 1990s with projects like Linux and how large companies increasingly adopted and supported open source software. The document analyzes where the open source movement is now in the innovation-decision process model.
Open source is software whose source code is available for modification or enhancement by anyone. Source code is the part of software that computer programmers can manipulate to change how a program works. Opening the source code enables self-enhancing diversity of production, communication, and interaction communities. The open source movement began as a response to the limitations of proprietary code and has since spread to different fields like technology development.
20 years of open source and... what’s next?Speck&Tech
ABSTRACT: Open source started as a marketing program for free software back in 1998. Starting as a controversial and disruptive idea, it has moved through the stages of acceptance to become the dominant idea in creating software systems. Why did it start and what was the timeline? Why did open source work so well? What's next?
BIO: Simon Phipps is managing director of Meshed Insights Ltd, providing companies with open community engagement advice. He is a pro-bono director of the Open Source Initiative, the global steward of the Open Source Definition - OSI serves to advocate for, educate about and build bridges within the open source community; of The Document Foundation, stewards of LibreOffice; and of the Open Rights Group, protecting digital rights in the UK. His career has included early engagement in establishing Java, XML and weblogs as computer industry technologies as well as contributions to open standards in a variety of fields. As chief open source officer at Sun Microsystems he supervised the open source relicensing of Solaris Unix, Java and many other software systems.
The document provides a history of operating systems, beginning with the creation of UNIX at Bell Labs in 1969. It describes how UNIX was rewritten in C in 1973 and some of its key authors. It discusses the development of commercial Unix systems, BSD, and Linux and major distributions like Slackware, Debian, and Red Hat. It also references the GNU project and development of the GPL license, and how these led to the rise of free and open source software.
This document provides an overview of Free Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS) development. It discusses what FLOSS is, why to use and develop FLOSS, and how FLOSS is developed. FLOSS development is described as an open, collaborative process done within communities internationally. Developers work together decentralizedly using tools like mailing lists, version control systems, and bug trackers. New contributors start by engaging with communities, submitting issues and patches. Community leadership focuses on meritocracy, autonomy, and delegating tasks. Challenges to Cuban participation include internet access and license decisions, but these may be addressed through solutions.
The document discusses the benefits of adopting open source software in educational institutions. It outlines the history and development of open source software. Key benefits mentioned include cost savings, ability to modify code, and collaborative nature which allows sharing knowledge. The conclusion recommends the school system adopt open source software for academic and financial reasons.
This document discusses open source software, including its definition, history, advantages, and growth. It provides examples of popular open source operating systems like Linux and BSD, as well as programming tools and internet technologies like Apache, sendmail, and Mozilla. The document notes that open source software provides benefits like lower costs, reduced vendor dependence, easier customization, and higher security. It also profiles some notable figures and companies that use and contribute to open source software, like Facebook, Linux creator Linus Torvalds, Google co-founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin, and Mozilla Firefox developers.
The term “open source” was coined in 1998 to provide a way to explain free software to companies. In the 20 years that have followed, open source has become the default for enterprise software development. What are the trends that we’ll see as we enter the third decade of open source? This talk will give you the headlines of the future.
This document summarizes Ted Husted's presentation "The Secret Life of Open Source" given at ApacheCon NA in Vancouver, CA on November 10, 2011. It discusses the history and evolution of major open source projects from the 1960s to present day including GNU, Linux, Apache, PHP, Mozilla, Ubuntu, Wikipedia and LibreOffice. It also examines the different governance models and growth of open source usage in commercial products and organizations. The presentation explores how open source communities balance code, community and conscience in their operations.
This document discusses a career in open source software development. It begins by describing different types of open source projects, including community open source projects like Linux and Apache that have a community of owners, and single-vendor open source projects that have a single owner. It then discusses typical career paths for software developers, including roles like engineer, manager, and CTO. For community open source projects, developers can progress from user to contributor to committer based on their contributions. The document next discusses the economic value of participating in open source projects, including skills gained, peer certification, and potential leadership roles. It argues that these benefits translate to value for employers through reduced hiring risk, better work quality, higher reputation and sales, and lower costs
The document discusses open source software and provides definitions and explanations of key concepts. It defines open source software as software that users can run, distribute, study and modify for any purpose. It also discusses the related concept of free software and the four freedoms that define free software. The document outlines some common misconceptions about open source software and explains how open source projects utilize community involvement and peer review to develop high quality software.
This document provides an introduction to open source technology. It defines open source software as software with available source code that allows users to modify and improve it, in contrast to proprietary software where the source code is not available. Examples of open source software include Linux, Firefox, and OpenOffice, while proprietary software examples include Windows and Microsoft Office. The document then discusses the history of open source software and lists some benefits like free availability and customizability as well as drawbacks like a steeper learning curve. It concludes by discussing Nepal's current status with open source and possibilities for its future use.

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).
"$10 thousand per minute of downtime: architecture, queues, streaming and fin...Fwdays
Direct losses from downtime in 1 minute = $5-$10 thousand dollars. Reputation is priceless.
As part of the talk, we will consider the architectural strategies necessary for the development of highly loaded fintech solutions. We will focus on using queues and streaming to efficiently work and manage large amounts of data in real-time and to minimize latency.
We will focus special attention on the architectural patterns used in the design of the fintech system, microservices and event-driven architecture, which ensure scalability, fault tolerance, and consistency of the entire system.

AppSec PNW: Android and iOS Application Security with MobSFAjin Abraham
Mobile Security Framework - MobSF is a free and open source automated mobile application security testing environment designed to help security engineers, researchers, developers, and penetration testers to identify security vulnerabilities, malicious behaviours and privacy concerns in mobile applications using static and dynamic analysis. It supports all the popular mobile application binaries and source code formats built for Android and iOS devices. In addition to automated security assessment, it also offers an interactive testing environment to build and execute scenario based test/fuzz cases against the application.
This talk covers:
Using MobSF for static analysis of mobile applications.
Interactive dynamic security assessment of Android and iOS applications.
Solving Mobile app CTF challenges.
Reverse engineering and runtime analysis of Mobile malware.
How to shift left and integrate MobSF/mobsfscan SAST and DAST in your build pipeline.
How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?
"NATO Hackathon Winner: AI-Powered Drug Search", Taras KlobaFwdays
This is a session that details how PostgreSQL's features and Azure AI Services can be effectively used to significantly enhance the search functionality in any application.
In this session, we'll share insights on how we used PostgreSQL to facilitate precise searches across multiple fields in our mobile application. The techniques include using LIKE and ILIKE operators and integrating a trigram-based search to handle potential misspellings, thereby increasing the search accuracy.
We'll also discuss how the azure_ai extension on PostgreSQL databases in Azure and Azure AI Services were utilized to create vectors from user input, a feature beneficial when users wish to find specific items based on text prompts. While our application's case study involves a drug search, the techniques and principles shared in this session can be adapted to improve search functionality in a wide range of applications. Join us to learn how PostgreSQL and Azure AI can be harnessed to enhance your application's search capability.
In our second session, we shall learn all about the main features and fundamentals of UiPath Studio that enable us to use the building blocks for any automation project.

As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
