AWS re:Invent 2016: Building HPC Clusters as Code in the (Almost) Infinite Cl...Amazon Web Services
Every day, the computing power of high-performance computing (HPC) clusters helps scientists make breakthroughs, such as proving the existence of gravitational waves and screening new compounds for new drugs. Yet building HPC clusters is out of reach for most organizations, due to the upfront hardware costs and ongoing operational expenses. Now the speed of innovation is only bound by your imagination, not your budget. Researchers can run one cluster for 10,000 hours or 10,000 clusters for one hour anytime, from anywhere, and both cost the same in the cloud. And with the availability of Public Data Sets in Amazon S3, petabyte scale data is instantly accessible in the cloud. Attend and learn how to build HPC clusters on the fly, leverage Amazon’s Spot market pricing to minimize the cost of HPC jobs, and scale HPC jobs on a small budget, using all the same tools you use today, and a few new ones too.

(DVO207) Defending Your Workloads Against the Next Zero-Day AttackAmazon Web Services
"When serious vulnerabilities like Shellshock or Heartbleed are discovered, you know you should respond quickly. But when you’re juggling many priorities and are more comfortable developing apps than security policies, emergency updates may fall to the bottom of the list. Is there a better way to protect your workloads without a lot of work?
In AWS, your entire deployment and infrastructure is code. Your security controls have to take the same approach. When your entire stack is code, you can automate protection for zero-day vulnerabilities, without impacting your architecture or adding operational burden.
In this session, you’ll learn how to respond and recover from the next zero-day vulnerability. Using real-world examples, you’ll see how you can combine AWS features, such as security groups, VPCs, and IAM roles with workload-aware security controls like intrusion prevention to automate your defenses.
Learn simple and easy-to-deploy security techniques that protect your workloads, but don’t require a PhD in cybersecurity. Session sponsored by Trend Micro."

Tooling Up for Efficiency: DIY Solutions @ Netflix - ABD319 - re:Invent 2017Amazon Web Services
At Netflix, we have traditionally approached cloud efficiency from a human standpoint, whether it be in-person meetings with the largest service teams or manually flipping reservations. Over time, we realized that these manual processes are not scalable as the business continues to grow. Therefore, in the past year, we have focused on building out tools that allow us to make more insightful, data-driven decisions around capacity and efficiency. In this session, we discuss the DIY applications, dashboards, and processes we built to help with capacity and efficiency. We start at the ten thousand foot view to understand the unique business and cloud problems that drove us to create these products, and discuss implementation details, including the challenges encountered along the way.

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.

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.
Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

Channel 4
Amazon Web Services launched in 2006, offering very few initial web services, which is nowadays commonly called ‘the cloud’
Cloud Computing, by definition means the on-demand delivery of IT and application services via the Internet using a pay as you go model.
Today, we take many things which we consume as an utility for granted. If we go back in time to the era of the industrial revolution this was not the case. Every factory had to build and maintain their own steam engines and power generators to run their factories, as there was no electricity infrastructure. This is very similar to what we see today in cloud computing, where many companies move to the cloud to be able to focus on their core business.
Today our data center footprint is global, spanning 5 continents with highly redundant clusters of data centers in each region. Our footprint is expanding continuously as we increase capacity, redundancy and add locations to meet the needs of our customers around the world.
Beyond the pure infrastructure service, AWS today offers over 30 services, which you can consider as building blocks to assemble your IT products.
We are going to show some examples on how customers in the media domain are using them…
If you look at a typical end-to-end media workflow, many companies are leveraging the cloud for distribution at scale - cloud services have enabled media and entertainment companies to tackle the challenges and complexity of offering consumers content anytime, anywhere, and on any device.
[click to animate]
Media companies such as studios and broadcasters have several other upstream aspects of the content production workflow, including:
For live broadcast scenarios we have the venues, which include cameras and production trucks where the content production happens. The broadcast center receives the signal from the venue via satellite or high speed fiber, and often includes storage and asset management aspects - live editing, clipping, logging, graphics and so on happen here. The broadcasters then process the feeds for distribution to their audiences which may be via a number of distribution mechanisms to a variety of devices such as set top boxes, PCs, and mobile phones.
For non-live scenarios, such as film production, there are other processes upstream from distribution – things like rendering, special effects, and editing.
[click to animate]
What if the media companies could leverage the cloud for more aspects of their overall media workflow? How would that improve their ability to be agile?
The cloud can be leveraged to meet ever increasing infrastructure demands of these upstream media workflow scenarios, and can also be leveraged for downstream scenarios related to consumption device experiences where cloud based big data solutions are being used for things like program guides, recommendation engines, ad decisioning, and second screen experiences.
Let’s dig into those scenarios a bit…
a single frame can take up to 40 hours to render
Not limited to the physical infrastructure, can expand as much as needed to meet business demands (preview the scene, change sequence, etc.)
Helped them to do what they couldn’t do by their own as a company.
Didn’t wanted to be in the datacenter business neither, wanted to be in the visual effects business.
Can shutdown a project as easily too.
Atomic Fiction had 4 months to create realistic Alien Landscapes for the Star Trek: Into Darkness movie
In total, they consumed 1.7 million rendering hours – this is almost 200 years, of which more than half (900.000) have been done in 30 days.
Also mention that once completed, they went back to 0 within a week…
= no need for capacity planning

About Spotify
Spotify is an online music service offering instant access to over 16 million licensed songs. The application is available for Windows and Mac OS operating systems, as well as multiple mobile device platforms. Spotify users can choose between a free, ad-supported version and a monthly subscription that allows users to enjoy music without ads on a wide range of mobile devices. Both options allow users to enjoy instant access to one of the world’s biggest music libraries, and to enjoy, discover and share music on a number of different social platforms, including Facebook.
The Challenge
Because the company’s goal is to help people listen to whatever music they want, whenever they want, wherever they want, Spotify faces the perpetual challenge of cataloging not only yesterday and today’s popular tracks, but also all those to be released in the future. Spotify adds over 20,000 tracks a day to its catalogue.
Emil Fredriksson, operations director for Spotify, explains, “Spotify needed a storage solution that could scale very quickly without incurring long lead times for upgrades. This led us to cloud storage, and in that market, Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) is the most mature large-scale product. Amazon S3 gives us confidence in our ability to expand storage quickly while also providing high data durability.”
Why Amazon Web Services
The company created Python-based backend systems to interact with its huge volume of content in Amazon S3. In addition, Amazon CloudFront delivers the Spotify application and software updates to users.
Just as music trends perpetually change, Amazon Web Services (AWS) helps Spotify continuously evaluate its infrastructure in order to meet evolving business goals. Fredriksson notes, “By removing the restrictions incurred by in-house solutions, we enabled much faster development and deployment cycles.”
As part of this evaluation, the company frequently examines the possibility of integrating new services into its existing AWS feature stack. Based on this practice, Fredriksson reminds other technical decision makers that resource utilization can be unpredictable. He explains, “Consequently it is very important to design your systems so that they can react to variations in performance and compensate with scaling.”
The Benefits
Spotify is taking its own advice to maintain a highly responsive system.
