Indexing and Searching Logs with Elasticsearch/Solr by Radu Gheorghe from Sem...
This presentation shows how Logstash, Apache Flume or rsyslog can help you parse, buffer and ship your logs to Elasticsearch or Solr. We’ll show the pros and cons of each tool, so you can decide what’s best for your use case.
The presentation also puts Elasticsearch and Solr side by side ands shows how to make them handle write-heavy applications like those presented in the first part. It goes over how to tweak various buffers, merge policies, how to structure indices/collections, and more. And when one machine isn’t enough, we’ll look at how Elasticsearch and Solr (through SolrCloud) can be scaled horizontally to handle more and more data.

Using MongoDB and a Relational Database at MongoDB Day
This document discusses using MongoDB and a relational database together in applications. It suggests testing your data and access patterns to determine if MongoDB is a good fit for parts of your app. If so, utilities, logging, comments, and isolated subsystems are examples of good candidates for MongoDB. The document provides instructions for setting up MongoDB with Rails applications using MongoMapper and ActiveRecord together. It also describes some challenges like replacing migrations and tool upgrades over time.

I Am DevOps (And So Can You)
Ignite talk from DevOpsDays Pittsburgh 2014
I'm told DevOps isn't a title, team, or task, but (perhaps because my hiring manager trolled me by putting it in my title), people ask me how they can get DevOps, like it's a prize at the bottom of a cereal box. I'll give you the five-minute version of what I say when someone asks me how to make their sysadmin job description "more DevOpsy", what resources I suggest to fellow traditional sysadmins who want to try to DevOps up their skills, and how I have made peace with my erstwhile mortal frenemies who put the Dev in Ops.

It includes images of Cyborg from DC comics, C-3PO and R2-D2 from Star Wars, Bender from Futurama, WALL-E from the movie of the same name, a robot from IRobot, a robot from an unknown source, Eve from WALL-E, Optimus Prime from Transformers, a tortured robot from an unknown source, and robots from the movie Robots.
Dw tpain - Gordon Klok
This document discusses using a PID controller to dynamically limit the rate of MySQL backups using innobackupex to avoid overloading the storage servers. It describes setting up pv to monitor and rate limit the backup, with a remote PID controller adjusting the limit in real time based on iostat metrics to keep the storage servers optimally utilized during backups. The controller aims to keep the average queue size around 1.0 on the storage devices containing MySQL data files.
Dev ops finishes what agile started - Manfred Moser
The document discusses how DevOps finishes what Agile started by integrating development, security, and operations. It notes that organizations struggle to manage the increasing complexity, diversity, volume, and pace of change of the many components that modern applications rely on. Adopting DevOps practices like continuous integration/delivery and automating policies is necessary for organizations to effectively manage components and release applications while minimizing security and quality risks. The document advocates for "shifting security left" by incorporating security practices earlier in the development process.

Game of thrones - Jonathan Thorpe
This document discusses the dark side of human nature including vanity, anger and greed. It hints that a more uncensored version on these topics will be presented at an upcoming conference, DevOpsDays Vancouver on October 25-26.
Heka - Rob Miller
Heka is a unified data processing tool that can replace multiple existing tools like collectd, statsd, logstash, and riemann. It acquires data from various sources through inputs, transforms and transports the data through splitters, decoders, filters and a router. The data can then be output to external services, other Heka instances, or a dashboard. Plugins are added dynamically through sandboxes without needing to restart the service, and misbehaving plugins are automatically shut off. Heka aims to reduce the number of processes to manage by providing a single flexible and configurable tool that can be easily extended to handle different data processing needs.
Gaming dev ops - Eduardo Saito
The document describes the evolution of alert workflows at a gaming company. Traditionally, all alerts went to operations teams who had to track down the relevant developers. A new system routes each alert directly to the team that can resolve it, whether operations, a specific development project, or analytics. This improves response time by ensuring alerts go to those responsible without operations having to transfer the issue. Status updates are also provided via an IM bot for better communication across teams.
From the classroom to the cloud a journey with node.js - Christopher Hogue
This document provides an overview of concepts in programming including data types like primitive, structured, and composite data types. It discusses hardware components like storage, memory, CPU, and networks. It also briefly mentions benchmarking tools like benchtraj and lists some resources for learning more about tools like DTrace from Joyent including blogs and people to follow on Twitter.
Your business needs devops, so don’t follow - Brian johnson
The document criticizes how ITIL has been commercialized and misused to prioritize process over practical solutions. It argues that businesses need DevOps to focus on collaboration, speed, and delivering working solutions rather than rigid processes. While ITIL originally aimed to help businesses, it has been corrupted by those seeking to treat it as the sole framework and sell unnecessary certification programs and products. The author advocates for embracing DevOps' potential for addressing lifecycles and reducing costs and time to market, rather than declaring it the new ITIL.
Test kitchen 1.0 - Fletcher Nichol
Test Kitchen is a tool for testing infrastructure code in isolation using test instances. It runs test suites on target platforms, using drivers to define actions for instances. It allows running tests optionally to verify configuration. The tool aims to provide a simple, declarative, and isolated testing workflow.
Living system or build factory - Chris Maxwell
This document discusses the differences between living systems and build factories in IT operations. A living system mutates and evolves over time as the business needs change, resulting in each system being slightly different. In contrast, a build factory aims to replicate systems exactly using automated procedures so that each new system has identical configurations. The document advocates describing processes, automating steps, and enabling production of identical systems through repetition as an effective approach for build factories. It also notes some challenges that can arise when deeply embedded problems occur in living systems or unexpected changes are required for production systems.
From vagrant to production - Mark Eijsermans
This document discusses the evolution of HootSuite's development and operations processes over several years as the company grew. It begins with a small co-located team that could release to production anytime with low overhead. It progresses to larger distributed teams releasing every 2-4 weeks through a more complicated process. The current process involves 6-10 releases per day through automation and practices like infrastructure as code that allow anyone to deploy. Key steps along the way included adopting Vagrant for development environments, implementing continuous integration and delivery pipelines, and moving to a microservices architecture.
Dev ops lessons learned - Michael Collins
The document discusses lessons learned from trying to implement DevOps in a rapidly growing company. Some key lessons include: (1) being able to clearly articulate what DevOps means for both individuals and the organization; (2) trusting developers and providing them with what they need; and (3) starting DevOps efforts with a focus on development environments rather than just production. The document also emphasizes focusing on toolchains rather than individual tools, using a service delivery pipeline approach, and ensuring good communication and hiring practices.
Building for operations - Reinhardt Quelle
The document discusses building applications for operability. It describes the different perspectives of operations and development teams. Operations teams view servers as part of clusters and focus on system-level configuration and components. Development teams focus mainly on application configuration. The document emphasizes that applications need to be built to allow for sharing of data and configurations across server clusters to support high availability and scalability. It provides examples of how server infrastructure and applications are structured, such as front-end servers routing requests to application servers.
Taking devops to the Next Level - Max Martin
This document discusses how Puppet, Mcollective, and related tools have advanced to help users take DevOps to the next level. It summarizes new features in Puppet 3.0 like improved speed and scalability, Hiera for hierarchical configuration data, and PuppetDB for fast, scalable storage of Puppet data. It also outlines advances in Mcollective for orchestration and tools like Geppetto and the Puppet Forge. The document argues these tools help users achieve higher levels of speed, scalability, extensibility, reliability, flexibility, agility, and community involvement.
Sensu intro - Sean Porter
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.
Ops for everyone - John Britton
The document discusses using Boxen and Puppet to automate and configure a developer's Mac environment. It describes how Boxen allows one to install common tools like Homebrew, Git, Ruby versions and more with a single command on day one. It also explains how to configure personal and project-specific settings through Puppet manifests. Finally, it outlines how to use Hubot for chatops to share and operate terminals collaboratively.
Effective monitoring with statsd - Alexis lê-quôc
This document discusses effective application monitoring using tools like Datadog. It introduces the OODA loop concept of observe, orient, decide, and act for monitoring systems. Key aspects that observations from monitoring tools need to be timely, correct, and comprehensive. It then discusses how StatsD works as a simple and effective monitoring tool that collects custom metrics and sends them to backends using a simple text protocol. The document cautions about some common pitfalls of StatsD like treating counters as rates instead of counts and issues with histograms assuming normal distributions. It emphasizes the importance of tagging for organizing metrics and provides links to get started with StatsD.
Making operations visible - Nick Gallbreath
This document provides an overview of a presentation given by Nick Galbreath at DevOpsDays Tokyo 2013 about making operations visible. The presentation encourages organizations to expose more operational metrics and business data through systems like Graphite and StatsD to improve communication and collaboration between teams. It provides examples of how to collect and visualize different types of data from applications, systems, and business processes. The goal is to overcome excuses for lack of visibility and have organizations complete the "One Machine, One Day, One Person Challenge" to start capturing and sharing their key operational and business metrics.
What science tells us about information infrastructure - Mark Burgess
This document discusses the challenges of information technology (IT) infrastructure given its uncertain and dynamic nature. While IT would be easier if systems were deterministic, they are only in approximate balance due to environmental complexity impacting sensitivity. Continuous delivery requires continuous automation rather than power-assisted intervention. There is no such thing as an immutable system since intended changes do not prevent unintended changes. Failures are semantic and processes are dynamic, making control difficult, as the history of engineering shows the challenges of preventing cracks from spreading.
How to use continuous improvement kungfu to pay down technical debt - Kevin B...
This document describes how a team used continuous improvement techniques like kanban and daily standup meetings to pay down technical debt. They started by making their work visible on a kanban board and experimenting daily to address obstacles. This helped them gradually increase the amount of work spent paying off technical debt. Over time, they recruited more teams, improved coordination, and built faster feedback loops to work towards their goal of continuous delivery. Their daily improvements helped transform their work processes and productivity.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
“I’m still / I’m still / Chaining from the Block”
“An Outlook of the Ongoing and Future Relationship between Blockchain Technologies and Process-aware Information Systems.” Invited talk at the joint workshop on Blockchain for Information Systems (BC4IS) and Blockchain for Trusted Data Sharing (B4TDS), co-located with with the 36th International Conference on Advanced Information Systems Engineering (CAiSE), 3 June 2024, Limassol, Cyprus.
Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
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.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

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).

Artificial Intelligence for XMLDevelopment
In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing Days
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.
