How ServiceChannel Automated Their AWS Environment with PuppetAmazon Web Services
ServiceChannel, a facilities management software company, provides a cloud-based automation and reporting platform that helps more than 450 brands manage the performance of over 50,000 service providers across 220,000 locations worldwide. After Hurricane Sandy flooded its data center in 2012, ServiceChannel decided to build out a highly available and redundant system on the AWS Cloud. Because they didn’t have any configuration management in place at the time, they had to manually build all of their servers on AWS. This led to the decision to implement Puppet on AWS. With Puppet, ServiceChannel was able to create a fully automated pipeline to deploy, manage, and scale their AWS infrastructure, providing the agility needed to help support the growth of the company. Join us for our upcoming webinar where speakers from Puppet, AWS, and ServiceChannel will go into detail about how ServiceChannel optimized their AWS environment by adopting DevOps practices—including infrastructure as code—and how Puppet helped them automate their pipeline, increase scalability, and manage ever-increasing complexity.
Adopting DevOps that scales with your needs can be challenging, especially for larger enterprises. Since the perfect DevOps strategy varies for each organization, VirtusaPolaris has devised an approach for enterprise-wide DevOps adoption across three stages – Build, Deploy, and Manage. When NewsCorp realized they needed to modernize their IT infrastructure to stay ahead of a changing media landscape, they tapped VirtusaPolaris for assistance with Cloud Transformation including an Application Portfolio Assessment, migrating applications to the cloud, and DevOps adoption. While migrating applications, VirtusaPolaris helped NewsCorp define, design, and implement a DevOps model on AWS, then run and manage that environment efficiently, using a number of AWS services such as Amazon VPC, Amazon EC2, AWS Elastic Load Balancing (ELB), and more.
DevOps is an acronym for Development and Operations – two most important teams within any organization. For implementing DevOps successfully its important to understand the building blocks that make up this agile methodology.

Join ClearScale and AWS to learn how the San Jose Water Company worked with ClearScale to leverage Docker and the latest AWS DevOps tools including Amazon ECS, Amazon EC2 Container Registry (ECR) and AWS CodePipeline, to deliver new app features faster, with lower overhead. Gaining a competitive edge in the modern business landscape often depends on delivering apps with small, quick changes that create faster time-to-market, with focused value for the end customer. Successful companies adopt a DevOps model that automates continuous app delivery and may use a software containerization platform, both to accelerate releases and reduce risk. ClearScale is an AWS DevOps Premier Consulting Partner that helps decrease your time to market, governance and compliance risks, and lower your operational costs.
Join us to learn:
• The advantages of DevOps on AWS, using the latest AWS tools and Docker

In software development, time helps us build powerful and robust products. However, as the years goes by, the team changes along with ideas and programming styles; tight schedules lead to unclean codes; inexperienced hands create limited and ‘viral’ solutions, which then spread through the code and are hard to improve; finally, design and UX trends evolve. Nowadays, when the importance of web applications keeps growing, it is an advantage to be aware of the possibility to use Seaside to keep our Smalltalk applications updated with the new technologies, such as HTML5, CSS3, Javascript and its libraries. My dissertation will be focussed on the new UI we created for our oldest and biggest product, called Mercap Unitrade, and how we made the most of that project improving its architecture with new techniques. As a result, we were able to update it, take it to the edge and build the foundations for the multiple developments to come, without messing with the model layer and while building a huge amount of reusable components, that are shared with the other products developed by Mercap.
Phase Two: What’s Next for Life Sciences and Enterprise Content ManagementScott Abel

Dave will provide key lessons learned and warn how to avoid the big mistakes whether you are planning you first or next ECM effort.
AWS re:Invent 2016: Lift and Evolve – Saving Money in the Cloud is Easy, Maki...Amazon Web Services
Every enterprise knows by now that it can save money by simply lifting and shifting workloads to the cloud, but many are missing the larger opportunity to also make money by moving. While quick costs savings are good for the bottom line, they do little to move the top line numbers. To achieve both savings and earnings, corporate thinking about technologies must change in order to enable faster processes leveraged enterprise-wide. In this session we will explore multiple customer success stories where the customers have evolved from leveraging basic compute and storage products (EC2 and S3) to integrating new services into operations by leveraging Lambda, DynamoDB, CodeDeploy, etc. Once this is achieved, enterprises are enabled to manage and deploy code rapidly in a programmatic and elastic secure network, ensuring governance and security standards across the globe. We will look at the migration process trusted by hundreds of clients as well as how to cope with the process and people components that are so important to enable agility, while focusing heavily on the technology. The Coca-Cola Company (TCCC) and 2nd Watch story will dive deep into the technology that allows TCCC to manage hundreds of AWS Accounts, hundreds of workloads, thousands of instances, and hundreds of business partners around the globe. TCCC’s Configuration Management System has Puppet at the core and relies on over a dozen core and emerging AWS products across accounts, availability zones and regions. This complex and globally-available system ensures all of TCCC’s workloads in AWS meet corporate policies but also allows for rapid scale of both consumer and enterprise workloads.

An astonishing, first-of-its-kind, report by the NYT assessing damage in Ukraine. Even if the war ends tomorrow, in many places there will be nothing to go back to.
El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.

2. Agenda
Emergent design vs evolutionary
architecture
Principles of evolutionary architecture
Techniques of evolutionary architecture
How to achieve an evolutionary
architecture in practice
3. Design and
Architecture
Evolutionary versus Emergent
Design and Architecture
Evolutionary Architecture and Emergent
Design
4. Principles of Evolutionary
Architecture
Last responsible moment
Architect and develop for evolvability
Postel’s Law
Architect for testability
Conway’s Law
5. Last Responsible
Moment
Delay decisions as long as you can, but no
longer
Maximizes the information you have
Minimizes technical debt from complexity
Decide early what your drivers are, and
prioritize decisions accordingly
Evolutionary, neither emergent nor based
on guesswork
6. Architect for
Evolvability
Sensible breakdown of functionality
Consider data lifecycle and ownership
Appropriate coupling
Lightweight tooling and documentation
7. Develop for
Evolvability
Software internal quality metrics focusing
on ease of change
Find hotspots and focus efforts there
Measure continually, focusing on trends
9. Postel’s Law
Be conservative in what you send
Be liberal in what you receive
Only validate what you need
Holds for any information exchange
Use version changes when a contract
must be broken
10. Architect for
Testability
Aiming towards testability produces a
well-architected system
Messaging infrastructure used for
messaging, not business logic
Business sensible components
Testing at many levels, including contract
Build pipelines support the volume
11. Conway’s Law
Organizations design systems reflecting
their communication structures
Broken communications imply complex
integration
Silos often result in broken communication
If you don’t want your product to look like
your organization, change your
organization (or your product)
13. Database
Refactoring
De-compose big change into series of
small changes
Each change is a refactoring/migration
pair (or triple if you include access code)
Changes compose in the same way
functions compose
And of course, version control the
changes
And apply in the various environments
during promotion
14. Continuous
Delivery
Automate environments and configurations
Automate builds and use continuous
integration
Automate testing at all levels
Automate deployment
Just because you CAN release at any
time doesn’t mean you HAVE to
15. HATEOAS
Hypermedia as the Engine of Application
State
Distribution of information
Consumer driven contracts
Evolvable contracts
Idempotency and other properties
16. Evolutionary
Architecture
Define your architectural fitness function
Delay your decisions as long as you can
Understand various forms of technical
debt
Implement evidence based re-use
Create and maintain the testing safety
