AppSphere 15 - Microsoft Azure for Developers & DevOpsAppDynamics
The cloud has gained so much momentum that there is not a single day that you don’t hear or read about things like cloud native apps , containers, micro services, or cloud migration. The value in moving to the cloud is real – delivering better software experiences to customers faster and more reliably, No matter which of the scenarios you need to address, Azure offers a rich platform for developing any type of application. This session will cover some of Azure’s core services from a developer’s perspective, starting with development scenarios using Azure virtual machines and Virtual machine scale sets, building containerized services using the Azure container service, and building powerful web and mobile apps using Azure App Service. We’ll wrap up showing you how you can build always-on, scalable microservices applications using Azure Service Fabric. This deck was originally presented at AppSphere 2015.

System Center 2012 for VMware InfrastructureBryan Dady
Slides from a group presentation I was privileged to participate in during the last Microsoft Management Summit (MMS, April 2013).
The original is hosted by Microsoft at http://channel9.msdn.com/Events/MMS/2013/IM-B309, and I've copied this edition here for sharing on my LinkedIn profile.
In this session you will learn how you can run popular enterprise workloads from Microsoft, Oracle and SAP on AWS.
We will discuss how you can choose between installing and configuring your own applications or launching entire software stacks from Oracle, SAP and Microsoft in minutes by choosing from a large selection of pre-configured virtual machines images and templates. In both many cases, customers may be able to use their existing software licenses in the AWS cloud with no additional license fees.

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).

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
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.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.
