The shift to cloud-based services has dramatically altered the IT landscape as we know it. Enterprise infrastructure borders have expanded beyond the firewall and now include hosted applications and infrastructure hosted in public and private clouds. Puppet helps DevOps teams meet their common objectives, creating a seamless IT infrastructure across departments, reducing cost and increasing productivity.
This training section will cover deploying cloud infrastructure automatically using Puppet, an open source configuration management and automation tool.The session will cover the following topics:
Configuring Puppet and Puppetmaster
Resource Types and the Resource Abstration Layer
Virtual Resources, Exported Resources and Stored Configs
Speaker Bio
Luke founded Puppet and Puppet Labs in 2005 out of fear and desperation, with the goal of producing better operations tools and changing how we manage systems. He has been publishing and speaking on his work in system administration since 1997, focusing on development since 2001. He has developed and published multiple simple sysadmin tools and contributed to established products like Cfengine, and has presented on Puppet and other tools around the world, including at OSCON, LISA, Linux.Conf.au, and FOSS.in. His work with Puppet has been an important part of DevOps and delivering on the promise of cloud computing.
This talk is an in-depth look at all we, at Chef, have learned and what we love and what could be better about Configuration Management, Continuous Delivery and DevOps. We'll explore the pain points that still exist, especially as teams try to bring containers and microservices into production. We’ll then explore how to ensure the apps you build, deploy, and manage behave consistently in any runtime — metal, VMs, containers, and PaaS. You'll spend less time on the environment and more time building features.

When DevOps talks meet DevOps tactics, companies find that Continuous Integration is the make or break point. And implementing CI is one thing, but sustainable CI takes a little bit more consideration. CI is not all about releases, it is also about knowing more about how your software delivery pipeline works, it's weak points, and how you are doing over time.
Join CloudBees and cPrime as we discuss best practices for facilitating DevOps pipelines with Jenkins Workflow and reveal how the workflow engine of Jenkins CI and “Agilecentric” Devops practices together, support complex control structures, shortens the development cycle, stabilizes environments and reduces defects.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
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.

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).

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).

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.
Let’s think about the disruption we’re seeing in the banking sector. We have small companies or branch-less banks that are taking on the traditional banks and this is driving a change in that industry. There’s adoption of the DevOps working practises we see that allow these organisations to respond more quickly and in the end remain competitive.
So why do we care about speed. There are lots of technical reasons, but what’s the business driver behind being able to do things quickly? I think it comes down to this- the ability to ship an idea. And that idea may be a new product feature, or it may be a system change that makes a server more secure. As organisations we understand that we need to focus on our products and therefore our users. These users don’t stand sill, their needs change, our needs change and so to remain competitive and keep satisfied users we need to be able to change.
If we think about the history of Chef, it’s always been about Open Source, and this is really important because the technology needs to be adopted! Whether it’s inside your business or our really strong community. Closed software is a tough sell.
Open Source foundation
Chef (infra) - focused on infrastructure automation. Enforce business state on an ongoing basis.
Inspec (compliance) - define policy as code to verify system state is compliant.
Habitat (app) - ensure apps you have behave the same across the lifecycle (build, deploy and manage).
Chef Automate helps connect the dots between those toolsets. It plugs in on top of those open-source tools to provide workflow, compliance and visibility. Chef Automate helps scale organization-wide adoption of automation across teams with a common continuous delivery workflow, ensures continuous compliance that happens early and throughout the development process, and provide visibility on top of it all. Use our open-source automation tooling to get started. Use Chef Automate to level-up: gain repeatability, security, and governance across your entire organization.
That’s what we’re going to look at today.
