OpenStack networking - Neutron deep dive with PLUMgridKamesh Pemmaraju
These are slides from the OpenSTack Meeting in Boston on Marck 18, 2015. The session led by Fernando Sanchez - Principal Systems Engineer, at PLUMgrid. In this talk, Fernando discussed OpenStack architecture with a particular focus on networking. We’ll cover some important considerations for networking in your OpenStack cloud, provide a look at common terminology, and discuss how Open Networking Suite works with OpenStack to alleviate networking challenges.
The document discusses OpenStack Neutron and Software Defined Networks (SDN). It begins with an agenda for a demonstration of Neutron including creating networks, spawning VMs, testing connectivity, and creating load balancers. It then provides an overview of Neutron components and architecture, including the modular layer 2 plugin. It demonstrates Neutron APIs and network namespaces. It introduces SDN concepts like the control plane and network virtualization. Finally, it discusses how Neutron enforces SDN through plugins like PLUMgrid that implement the functionality on software edges in compute nodes.
This document discusses how adopting a cloud native approach is a cultural decision for companies. It emphasizes that engineering organizations have their own cultures defined by a small set of principles and questions. These include values like quality, rapid deployment, accountability, and stability. While there are no silver bullets, identifying core invariants and defining cultural values can help guide a company towards being customer-obsessed and proud of their work.
In any Cloud Native architecture there’s a seemingly endless stream of events that happen at each layer. These events can be used to detect abnormal activity and possible security incidents, as well as providing an audit trail of activity.
In this talk we’ll cover how we extended Falco to ingest events beyond just host system calls, such as Kubernetes audit events or even application level events. We will also show how to create Falco rules to detect behaviors in these new event streams. We show how we implemented Kubernetes audit events in Falco, and how to configure the event stream.
Kafka Mirror Tester: Go and Kubernetes Powered Test Suite for Kafka Replicati...Cloud Native Day Tel Aviv
Inspired by the Jepsen series of database test suites I created kafka-mirror-tester, a cross-Atlantic automated test suite for Kafka mirroring using Golang and Kubernetes. There, I said k8s, need I say more?
Join me to learn how k8s solves database automation tasks and Go drives those tests.
Kubernetes was originally targeted for running large scale web applications.
I/O intensive workload represents a class of high-end applications such as network services, trading applications, database services that require high-speed access to hardware resources and often users specific hardware or CPU features to maximize their performance.
Service meshes are all the buzz in cloud-native world.
How come only yesterday we didn't know such a thing existed and now everybody seems to want one?
If you're already running a microservice-based system or only starting out with one, you may be asking yourself : "Do I also need a mesh?"
In this session we'll try to answer what the mesh is good for, what problem it solves, what new questions it poses.
Devices on the edge are highly varied in hardware and capabilities, even within the same technology space. Knowing that, how do we design an efficient, scalable, and reliable solution for updating the software on these devices, all while minimizing downtime for the user?

Kubernetes, Knative, serverless, cloud databases, authentication APIs, SMS APIs, payment APIs. Building a SaaS product is exciting, and we have so many tools that help build a cloud-native application, but this also introduces so many design choices we should consider.
If you are interested in monitoring, and successfully set up a system (whether home-grown or custom-off-the-shelf) for your own use, there comes a moment when you go from monitoring only the systems you care about, to monitoring systems that other people care about. Monitoring for yourself is all about having the best data for the least effort. Monitoring for others? That's when your job becomes a game of "what just happened" whack-a-mole.
Ever wondered how the K8s scheduler works, and how can you “help” it make the right decision for your application? In this session, we'll cover several different scheduling use-cases in K8s, what scheduling techniques are required in each and when to use them.
10 years ago, we promoted the move from pet systems to faceless hordes of electronic cattle grazing on commodity infrastructure. But as the evolution of the cloud progresses we find that the cattle methodology is no longer sufficient and that cloud native systems resemble some other biological entity…
MySQL shell is the MySQL client of the future. It will help you in your daily operations, whatever they are.

Running Highly Available Large Scale Systems is a lot of work. For the past 2.5 years, we've been running 100% serverless on a full production environment, serving customers worldwide. No VMs, no containers, no Kubernetes. Just code.
In this session I will present why we decided to go fully serverless at Torii, how it helped us move faster than our competitors, where did serverless computing worked best and where there's more work to be done.
12 Factor Serverless Applications - Mike Morain, AWS - Cloud Native Day Tel A...Cloud Native Day Tel Aviv
The “Twelve-Factor” application model has come to represent twelve best practices for building modern, cloud-native applications. With guidance on things like configuration, deployment, runtime, and multiple service communication, the Twelve-Factor model prescribes best practices that apply to everything from web applications to APIs to data processing applications. Although Serverless computing and AWS Lambda have changed how application development is done, the “Twelve-Factor” best practices remain relevant and applicable in a Serverless world. In this talk, we’ll apply the “Twelve-Factor” model to Serverless application development with AWS Lambda and Amazon API Gateway and show you how these services enable you to build scalable, low cost, and low administration applications.
Not my problem! Delegating responsibilities to the infrastructure - Yshay Yaa...Cloud Native Day Tel Aviv
When creating a new Microservice you typically need to add a lot of boilerplate to the code, such as logging, metrics, authentication, SSL, secrets/credentials, etc... All this ends up overshadowing the actual logic of the service itself and results in a lot of dependencies and code. Because of this, we at Soluto created a template for the boilerplate, which worked great...
Until we had to upgrade one of the dependencies which resulted in huge effort of code upgrades and deployment across each and every service that uses the template. And that’s besides the fact we needed to make a separate template for each language we used (and over the years, the number of programming languages we use at production increased dramatically).
We needed a way to simplify all this. We wanted to get rid of the boilerplate while maintaining the functions listed above. So we decided to delegate the entire responsibility to the Kubernetes infrastructure. In this lecture, I will do a live coding session and show you how to remove the boilerplate from your code and move it to the infrastructure, and discuss the benefits and limitations of this approach.
Brain in the Cloud: Machine Learning on OpenStack & Kubernetes Done Right - E...Cloud Native Day Tel Aviv
Machine Learning is no doubt the hottest trend in IT nowadays. Deep Neural Network (DNN), a subfield of Machine Learning with mode of operation loosely inspired by the brain, allows us to solve complex problems such as image recognition that has been very difficult to solve using standard programming paradigms. DNN concepts are not new. However, and until recently, applying them in practice could not be realized due to their high computational demands. With the recent development in parallel computing, especially around GPU acceleration and high speed and efficient networking, DNN has become a reality in modern data centers. In this talk we will describe the system requirements to effectively run a machine learning cluster with popular frameworks such as TensorFlow. We will discuss how such a system can be deployed in an OpenStack-based cloud without compromises, enjoying high-performance DNN programming paradigm as well as the benefits of cloud and software-defined data centers.
A stateful application walks into a Kubernetes bar - Arthur Berezin, JovianX ...Cloud Native Day Tel Aviv
Cloud native applications are commonly thought as stateless, horizontally scalable workloads that you can scale-up and down on-demand. Kubernetes, as the commodity cloud native orchestrator, was originally designed for such workloads. A lot has evolved since Kubernetes’ inception, and nowadays many of the stateful applications are migrating to Kubernetes. While not everything is perfect, more and more features are added to support complex stateful use-cases. In this session Arthur will cover the following topics:
- Breakdown of a stateful application
- Planning a stateful application on Kubernetes
- The state of Kubernetes StatefulSets, Persistent Volumes, DNS, Networking, operators and High Availability
- A practical use-case and DEMO of a stateful application with Kubernetes
The story of how KubeMQ was born - Oz Golan, KubeMQ - Cloud Native Day Tel Av...Cloud Native Day Tel Aviv
KubeMQ started as an internal project at a FinTech company to upgrade their infrastructure from monolithic to distributed services with zero downtime using containers. They developed KubeMQ as an open source message broker for containers since no existing MQ could meet their requirements. KubeMQ integrates with Kubernetes and other CNCF projects to provide a small footprint broker with high throughput, observability, security, and support for multiple languages and messaging patterns to make it easy to deploy and scale distributed services.
I want it all: go hybrid - Orit Yaron, Outbrain - Cloud Native Day Tel Aviv 2018Cloud Native Day Tel Aviv
All around you hear people taking a firm stand - whether it is pro-Cloud or against it. Almost like "would you prefer Chocolate or Vanilla ice cream?" Well, I like both! On this talk, I would like to suggest a more inclusive approach, sharing Outbrain journey in the attempt to enjoy both worlds.
Distributesd Tracing in Serverless Systems - Shannon Hogue, Epsagon - Cloud N...Cloud Native Day Tel Aviv
Serverless and FaaS naturally fit microservices architectures. Observability of such systems is very complicated, since each microservice is separated and working asynchronously from the others. Distributed tracing is a key approach to understand such systems. In serverless, there are new challenges and opportunities which make distributed tracing a very interesting and useful technique for high observability. I will go quickly over the history of distributed tracing and the most popular tools in this domain. Then, I will focus on the key differences between observability using distributed tracing in generic microservices environments compared to serverless. Examples from the popular cloud vendors will be shown, including full visualization of asynchronous transactions in a highly distributed serverless system, and detecting business flows across multiple asynchronous communication resources (e.g. SNS, Kinesis, and more).
Why cloud native envs deserve better security - Dima Stopel, Twistlock - Clou...Cloud Native Day Tel Aviv
Traditionally, security teams have been accustomed to investigating incidents and falling back to previous code releases if they detect serious issues. With the rise of modern cloud-native applications and immutable infrastructure, however, security engineers have new solutions at their fingertips. Immutable infrastructure refers to infrastructure with components that are designed to be destroyed and replaced with new versions whenever a change is necessary. This makes immutable infrastructure different from conventional deployment technologies, in which components were typically updated while they were still running rather than being redeployed whenever a change takes place. In this session, Dima Stopel will discuss the changing security landscape and how immutable infrastructure and cloud-native technologies such as containers, can make tedious, risk-prone security workflows a thing of the past.
Stretching the Open Source Network - Livnat Peer, Red Hat - Cloud Native Day ...Cloud Native Day Tel Aviv
In the cloud native era we are constantly looking into expanding our network. SMBs are looking to get workloads running on private cloud to have seamless connectivity to workloads running on public clouds. Telcos are looking to add compute resources to the edge and extend their network from the core to the edge. In this session we will discuss use cases that are challenging our networks and what open source tools we are using to meet these challenges.
Kubernetes is hard! Lessons learned taking our apps to Kubernetes - Eldad Ass...Cloud Native Day Tel Aviv
You might think taking your application to Kubernetes is easy. Just pack them in a Docker container, deploy and you're done!
In reality, the challenges of taking your existing application to the cloud native environment of Kubernetes are huge! They require changes in the way your applications behave and the way you administer them.
Do you really know how to get up and running with your existing applications in Kubernetes?
In this talk I will share my lessons learned taking JFrog's existing applications, prepping and deploying them to Kubernetes.
I'll go over some best practices of preparing your application for Kubernetes with some examples for what we did.

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).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.
Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.
