While many organizations have started to automate their software development processes, many still engineer their infrastructure largely by hand. Treating your infrastructure just like any other piece of code creates a “programmable infrastructure” that allows you to take full advantage of the scalability and reliability of the AWS cloud. This session will walk through practical examples of how AWS customers have merged infrastructure configuration with application code to create application-specific infrastructure and a truly unified development lifecycle. You will learn how AWS customers have leveraged tools like CloudFormation, orchestration engines, and source control systems to enable their applications to take full advantage of the scalability and reliability of the AWS cloud, create self-reliant applications, and easily recover when things go seriously wrong with their infrastructure.

Presented at the Keep Austin Agile 2016 Conference by Chris Edwards
By now you have likely heard about DevOps. It's quickly gaining adoption. But what is it? And why should you care? DevOps is all about creating a culture of high collaboration between development and operations with a goal of optimizing the entire software delivery pipeline—from code commit to features running in production. This enables organizations to deliver value into production faster and at a lower cost—even enabling multiple production deployments per day. Imagine the competitive advantage gained by delivering new features in hours or days rather than weeks, months or quarters.
This talk will show how DevOps improves agility by optimizing the delivery pipeline. We’ll look at common patterns and anti-patterns. We’ll see the kind of tools needed to automate and manage the ever increasing number of servers and applications modern organizations need. We’ll also discuss the benefits and costs of adopting a DevOps culture.
Here is a taste of some of the things we will discuss:
- Get ops involved up front rather than at the end, so deployment and monitoring issues are found early and rework is reduced.
- Treat infrastructure as code so it is automated, repeatable, and under version control.
- Ensure your development and test environments are identical to production (or as close as possible). This helps catch issues sooner rather than in production.
- Deploy more frequently so you are dealing with a smaller batch of changes. This is easier to manage, and less likely to fail.
If you struggle with deployments, or your ops team is constantly fighting fires and drowning in unplanned work, this talk is for you. Come see how DevOps can improve the agility of your organization.

This is my deck from International PHP in Berlin, 2014. This was just the deck, you cannot see all the demos that I ran while I was talking, no video (sorry).
NOTE: This is not nearly as technical as I like my talks, and all the console stuff was obviously not in the deck. This talk ended up targeting folks who had no cloud deployment experience, and needed a much higher-level overview than the title would suggest.
For the really heavy, in-depth technical stuff I'm going to be starting a webcast, after my return home.

Moving your applications from traditional IT stacks to the cloud is not an easy task. Migration to the cloud can cause security nightmares, performance degradation, and sudden cost spikes, to name just a few possible problems. For a successful cloud migration, you need to evolve both technology and business processes.
Nonetheless, moving from legacy infrastructure to public, private, or hybrid cloud can bring massive benefits, including increased flexibility, the ability to scale up or down as needed, and dramatic cost savings. When done well, transforming your business to adopt cloud services can be both painless and profitable.
Please join us for this webinar by James Bond, CTO at Hewlett Packard Enterprise and an expert in cloud computing. He will cover best practices for making your cloud migration successful, including:
* Why your organization should consider a cloud migration

Powering Virtualization, Applications, and Data Center Transformation with Co...Dell World
How can you streamline management and administration, provide services and applications fast, and empower your customers and users? Having to run IT more efficiently is a given; infrastructure operations and the data center must become simpler, easier to manage and less costly. And IT must be "cloud ready." Convergence is a path to that efficiency—and if that sounds like a mix of virtualization, cloud, utility, on-demand and shared computing services, you are right. The majority of "converged solutions" today are complex and rigid, resulting in more inflexible islands of technology rather than integrating with existing processes, investments and strategies. Organizations are demanding solutions designed with the key tenets of modularity and flexibility at their core. The ROI of convergence can be realized in many ways, but involves reevaluating your platform strategy to consider solutions that are not only optimized for virtualization density, but designed to work for you at any scale, from office to enterprise.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
