Liberty Buildpack: Designed for Extension - Integrating your services in Blue...Rohit Kelapure
The Liberty Buildpack aims to remove the hassle of running Java applications on Cloud Foundry whether it is the simplified setup, auto-configuration of Liberty and Java EE references to cloud resources, reduced droplet size through selective provisioning of the runtime, or the zero-touch configuration and usage of services. There are times, however, when an application needs a feature that the buildpack does not yet provide. This talk will start by showing how to use and configure the Java buildpack and finish by showing how to extend the buildpack to ensure that IBM BlueMix Cloud Foundry is the best place to run your application. To build services and integrate them with BlueMix, you must implement the Service Broker API of Cloud Foundry for your services. This talk will explain how to write plugins to the Liberty Buildpack that will auto wire services your organization developed and integrated into CF making it easier for your apps to use the services in Cloud Foundry.
Mobile to mainframe - The Challenges and Best Practices of Enterprise DevOps IBM UrbanCode Products
Delivering software is complex. Systems being developed are made up of multiple components, which in turn interact with other systems, services, application servers, data sources and invocations of 3rd party systems. In an Enterprise this complexity is further enhanced by the cross-platform nature of the infrastructure typical enterprises have. While the customers may be interacting with Systems of Engagement using Mobile and Web Apps, the core capabilities of the enterprise that the customers access are in Systems of Record that are running on large datacenters and more than likely Mainframe systems. Keeping these complex systems up and running and constantly updated with the latest capabilities is a task that requires constant coordination between the lines of business, various cross-platform development, QA and operations teams.
DevOps 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. Cross-platform enterprise Systems take the need for these practices up a level due to their inherent complexity and distributed nature. Such systems need even more care in applying DevOps principles as there are multiple platforms to be targeted, in a coordinated manner, each with its own requirements, quirks, and nuanced needs. This talk takes a look at the DevOps challenges specific to Cross-platform Enterprise Systems and present Best Practices to address them.

In his ConnectED 2015 presentation, BP210: Sunny Days, (Smart)Cloud-y Users, Mitch Cohen stepped through an intro to Security Directory Integrator (formerly TDI) including key terminology, why to use it (hint: you likely already have free entitlement for it), and a quick walkthrough of the Configuration Editor, Connectors, AssemblyLines, an d Properties.
His entire presentation is really very in depth, and if you’re thinking about or using Connections Cloud, it will be a valuable resource to you. Mitch provides 126 slides detailing what Connections Cloud is, how to register your users for it, an intro to the Integration Server, and creating a provisioning file. This presentation is available in our ConnectED 2015 community (http://bit.ly/16MCP3q) with the rest of the conference presentations. They’re all free to members, you just have to be signed in to your account to access them.
This Presentation shows how to connect a servo motor to a pi and control it via Watson IoT Platform. We used this to build a payloader which we added to a DJI drone.
DESY's new data taking and analysis infrastructure for PETRA IIIUlf Troppens
DESY (Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron) implemented a new IT architecture for the data taking and data analysis of measured data of the PETRA III particle accelerator. The new system needs to handle more than 20 gigabyte per second at peak performance in order to enable scientists worldwide to gain faster insights into the atomic structure of novel semiconductors, catalysts, biological cells and other samples. The implemented solution transfers to other fields of data centric science where remote devices (e.g. sensors, cameras) generate huge amounts of data which needs to be analyzed in a central data center. The solution is based on IBM Spectrum Scale and IBM Elastic Storage Server.
The system is the result of a 1-year collaboration between DESY and IBM. I am honored and proud to be member of the project team.

One of these routes is looking at Globus Compute as a way to replace the current method for managing tasks and we describe a brief proof of concept showing how Globus Compute could help to schedule jobs and be a tool to connect compute at different facilities.
How to Position Your Globus Data Portal for Success Ten Good PracticesGlobus
Science gateways allow science and engineering communities to access shared data, software, computing services, and instruments. Science gateways have gained a lot of traction in the last twenty years, as evidenced by projects such as the Science Gateways Community Institute (SGCI) and the Center of Excellence on Science Gateways (SGX3) in the US, The Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) and its platforms in Australia, and the projects around Virtual Research Environments in Europe. A few mature frameworks have evolved with their different strengths and foci and have been taken up by a larger community such as the Globus Data Portal, Hubzero, Tapis, and Galaxy. However, even when gateways are built on successful frameworks, they continue to face the challenges of ongoing maintenance costs and how to meet the ever-expanding needs of the community they serve with enhanced features. It is not uncommon that gateways with compelling use cases are nonetheless unable to get past the prototype phase and become a full production service, or if they do, they don't survive more than a couple of years. While there is no guaranteed pathway to success, it seems likely that for any gateway there is a need for a strong community and/or solid funding streams to create and sustain its success. With over twenty years of examples to draw from, this presentation goes into detail for ten factors common to successful and enduring gateways that effectively serve as best practices for any new or developing gateway.
Listen to the keynote address and hear about the latest developments from Rachana Ananthakrishnan and Ian Foster who review the updates to the Globus Platform and Service, and the relevance of Globus to the scientific community as an automation platform to accelerate scientific discovery.

Event sourcing, which records state changes as immutable events, provided robust auditing and "time travel" debugging for Wix Stores' microservices. Despite its benefits, the complexity it introduced in state management slowed development. Wix responded by adopting a simpler, unified CRUD model. This talk will explore the challenges of event sourcing and the advantages of Wix's new "CRUD on steroids" approach, which streamlines API integration and domain event management while preserving data integrity and system resilience.
Participants will gain valuable insights into Wix's strategies for ensuring atomicity in database updates and event production, as well as caching, materialization, and performance optimization techniques within a distributed system.
Join us to discover how Wix has mastered the art of balancing simplicity and extensibility, and learn how the re-adoption of the modest CRUD has turbocharged their development velocity, resilience, and scalability in a high-growth environment.

Paketo Buildpacks : la meilleure façon de construire des images OCI? DevopsDa...Anthony Dahanne
Les Buildpacks existent depuis plus de 10 ans ! D’abord, ils étaient utilisés pour détecter et construire une application avant de la déployer sur certains PaaS. Ensuite, nous avons pu créer des images Docker (OCI) avec leur dernière génération, les Cloud Native Buildpacks (CNCF en incubation). Sont-ils une bonne alternative au Dockerfile ? Que sont les buildpacks Paketo ? Quelles communautés les soutiennent et comment ?

Understanding Globus Data Transfers with NetSageGlobus
NetSage is an open privacy-aware network measurement, analysis, and visualization service designed to help end-users visualize and reason about large data transfers. NetSage traditionally has used a combination of passive measurements, including SNMP and flow data, as well as active measurements, mainly perfSONAR, to provide longitudinal network performance data visualization. It has been deployed by dozens of networks world wide, and is supported domestically by the Engagement and Performance Operations Center (EPOC), NSF #2328479. We have recently expanded the NetSage data sources to include logs for Globus data transfers, following the same privacy-preserving approach as for Flow data. Using the logs for the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) as an example, this talk will walk through several different example use cases that NetSage can answer, including: Who is using Globus to share data with my institution, and what kind of performance are they able to achieve? How many transfers has Globus supported for us? Which sites are we sharing the most data with, and how is that changing over time? How is my site using Globus to move data internally, and what kind of performance do we see for those transfers? What percentage of data transfers at my institution used Globus, and how did the overall data transfer performance compare to the Globus users?

Editor's Notes
Before we get in to the detail, I’d just like to emphasise that IBM has bought in to Docker big time. As with other open technologies that IBM invests in such as OpenStack and Node.js, IBM has sought an open governance process for Docker and is a founding member for the Governance Advisory Board. We don’t believe in setting the direction without helping deliver on that direction and IBM employs full-time maintainers and contributors on the core Docker projects. IBM is also a founding member of the Open Container Initiative looking to standardise the image format and container runtime. It was quickly recognised that there would be benefit in standardising at a high level of abstraction which is the purpose of the Cloud Native Computing Foundation. IBM also has a strategic partnership with Docker, acting as a reseller of the Docker Trusted Registry and providing L1 and L2 support. Lastly, and the subject of this presentation, IBM has been enabling its products with support for Docker.
It’s not all or nothing. Docker may be used for deployment and not development or vice-versa. Developers may, for example, still create server packages and then the middleware team build that in to a Docker image. There are many benefits to Developers using Docker though. The developer experience starts with installing Docker, via Docker Toolbox on Mac/Windows or via a repository for their Linux distribution. A typical starting point is then to use images from Docker Hub has a starting point. Beware of what you run though. Favour official images and those with automated builds where you can see what an image contains. Don’t run untrusted containers in privileged mode!
The Docker Tooling for Eclipse provides an easy to use UI for managing images and containers. In the February beta of the WebSphere Developer Tools we now have support for working with Liberty in Docker containers. It is possible to remotely attach to a running Liberty container, deploy applications to it, and switch it to and from debug mode.
Our websphere-liberty image is for development use-only but you can upgrade the licnese files to make it a production image. Alternatively we provide Dockerfiles and instructions on how to build the same image using production binaries. This still uses the community Ubuntu image as a basis. Consider how much of that Ubuntu distribution is actually being used though? You are free to take the Dockerfiles and modify them to build from a different base image e.g. RHEL. If we provided support for the base OS, would that make a difference? Should the version of Java and Liberty matter or should you always go with latest? Liberty’s zero migration policy and feature set tags help here.
We provide tags for common feature sets e.g. webProfile7 and javaee7 but you can also use the kernel image and installUtility to build an image that contains just the features required by the application. Doing so results in a smaller image but also limits reusability of the image.
If you do build your own images, try and follow the best practices for Dockerfile. Linters are now becoming available – our websphere-liberty Dockerfiles come up clean.
Lastly, you should use a build pipeline to create the images, either directly after the application is built or trigger off deployment of new application to artefact repository. Jenkins is one option, Urban Code Build is another and for a cloud based solution, look at IBM DevOps Services in Bluemix.
At the end of the build pipeline you will end up with an image that you wish to share. One option is to push the image to Docker Hub, alternatively you could push it to a private registry in IBM Containers on Bluemix. We will return to this option later in the presentation. For an on-premise solution, the simplest option is to save images as a tar file and then load them in again. In doing so, you lose out on the benefit of caching layers which are unchanged. Another option is the registry image from Docker Hub that implements the v2 API. This comes with no support for authentication and you will need to provide a signed certificate for the registry to be trusted by Docker engines. The final option is to purchase the Docker Trusted Registry from Docker or via IBM as a reseller. This provides authentication and management capabilities.
With an image built, we now need somewhere to run it. The first decision is platform: x86, ppc or z, then whether to run on bare metal or VMs? A bare metal deployment allows you to get the full performance benefit of the lack of a hypervisor but you may wish to partition physical servers with VMs and to provide a further level of isolation. The next choice is what OS to use. This might be your default choice in the enterprise or you might opt for one of the more streamlined options such as Core OS or Red Hat Atomic. You then need to provision the Docker engine. This could be with your favourite configuration management tooling, whether that be Salt, Puppet, Ansible, Chef of Urban Code Deploy. If you go down the VM route, you could use a pre-configured VM. Docker machine provides one route for provisioning and managing these across many cloud providers.
When configuring the Docker engine, one key option is the choice to use for the union file system. Long the preferred option for Docker deployments, aufs is generally fast but can slow down when accessing large files or large numbers of layers. It has also never made it in to the mainline kernel. Device mapper is the default on Red Hat and does block level thin provisioning. Ensure that you use real rather than sparse devices to prevent allocation delays. Btrfis uses chunked storage. It gives poor performance for large numbers of small files. It also does not allow page cache sharing which can lead to large memory usage. Overlay FS is the latest option and is now merged in to the 3.18 kernel. It does allow page cache sharing but, as with aufs, can suffer from poor performance with large files.
You also need to consider whether to enable remote access to the Docker API. This certainly simplifies management of multiple servers but ensure that it is secured.
With one or more Docker engines deployed and running, we now need a mechanism to launch containers. For simple deployments with small numbers of containers, don’t overlook a simple scripted approach. The next step up would be to apply more automation tooling, for example using UrbanCode Deploy or another configuration management tool. If you are looking to run larger numbers of containers, then you might consider using Docker Swarm which provides for scheduling of containers across multiple Docker hosts. Swarm itself deals in individual containers. You may also want to look at Docker Compose as a mechanism for deploying multiple containers that form an application deployment. Note that Swarm is only just starting to provide capabilities around rescheduling in the event of node failure. Google Kubernetes is another option. In addition to providing an application abstraction in the form of pods, Kubernetes provides other capabilities such as load balancing via service proxies.
Now in beta, there is also the possibility to use the Liberty collective controller as a means to deploy images across multiple hosts, in the same way that packaged servers may be deployed today. This will open the gateway to other intelligent management capabilities such as auto-scaling and health management.
When running a container, there may be additional options that we wish to apply. Some of these are around applying CPU constraints. cpuset can be used to control the cores that a container may run on. If multiple containers are running on a core, then shares can be used to control how CPU time is shared between them. Lastly, quota allows a hard limit to be placed on the amount of CPU time that a containers has. You may also want to restrict the amount of memory that a container is given. One cgroup constraint that didn’t make Docker 1.10 is for the number of PIDs – this is required to prevent fork bombs. You can also specify that the container should be read-only. Parts of the container that need write access should be mounted as volumes (e.g. /logs) or using the new --tmpfs option in Docker 1.10. Lastly, you may wish to configure a restart policy when a container exits other than via a ‘docker stop’. This can be particularly useful for containers that should be started when the Docker daemon starts.
Typically you will also want to provide environment specific configuration to a container. Environment variables are undoubtedly the simplest way to achieve this, particularly as the ‘run’ command allows a file of environment variables to be specified. This doesn’t support more complex constructs and should not be used for passwords or keys as environment variables are exposed in a number of places e.g. logs and ‘docker inspect’. For these cases, a better option is typically to mount a file in to the container at runtime. This file may be static or it could be generated dynamically e.g. via Consul and confd. The file may be consumed directly (e.g. via Liberty configDropins) or by an entrypoint script running in the container.
Networking is another area where there are many options.
Out-of-the-Box options include:
Bridge – the default, a virtual Ethernet bridge Docker0 with a pair of peer interfaces: one is containers eth0 and other is in host’s namespace;. A private IP range assigned to bridge.
None – this could be used for a container performing batch operations
Host – disables network isolation; faster (no routing)
Container – reuse networking namespace of another container – as used by Kubernetes pods
Overlay – SDN from SocketPlane; peer-to-peer; pluggable key-store (etcd/Consul/ZooKeeper) to distribute cluster state
Weave – virtual network; traverse firewalls and allows for partially connected networks
Calico – standard IP routing; layer 3 solution; organization has control over physical network fabric
Kuryr – brings OpenStack Neutron networking to Docker
For logging, the starting point should be the built-in logging driver support giving stdout/stderr for each container. There are a wide selection of logging drivers available out-of-the-box. Not all log information may go to stdout/stderr e.g. FFDC or HTTP access logs in the Liberty case. Here, export the /logs directory as a volume and then attach a log collector either on the host or in another container. A new option, available in the February beta is a new Liberty feature that right directly to a logstash server or the ElasticSearch based logmet service in Bluemix.
Lastly, it’s worth saying a few words about security although the links referenced here are worth reading and you should apply the benchmark to your environments. We’ll address two particular concerns here though. The first is the fact that the Docker Enginer is running as root and giving unrestricted access to the Docker engine API is equivalent to giving root access to the Docker host. DON’T DO IT! Docker is starting to address this with the introduction in Docker 1.10 of authorization plugin that can be used to restrict access e.g. to prevent use of privileged mode or mounting of volumes. The second point is the use of the root user with the websphere-liberty image on Docker Hub. This is on advice from Docker in that doing so makes it easier for users to bind mount files on the host at runtime. Fortunately Docker 1.10 comes to the rescue again with the introduction of user namespace support so that root within the container can be mapped to a non-root user on the host.
Lastly, if all of this seems very complied, consider a hosted solution such as IBM Containers in Bluemix. You get a private registry with a Vulnerability Advisor that can advise/prevent deployment of images containing vulnerable packages. The service is available across multiple geographic regions and supports per-minute billing. In addition to supporting the deployment of individual containers, it supports deploying a container as a scalable group with load balancing in front. There is also integrated logging and monitoring capabilities. Containers run on a private VLAN by default with the option to assign public IPs and there is support for persistent volumes.
